Decorators
- Status: Support for functions implemented
This is low-hanging fruit, especially now that classmethods have been done.
See http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0318/
Basically,
@spam def eggs(...): ...
Turns into
def eggs(...): ... eggs = spam(eggs)
but with eggs being stored in a temporary variable rather than the given scope. There is a little trickery because function are not actually defined on the fly at runtime, but it shouldn't be too bad.
StefanBehnel: The funny thing is that class decorators should even be easier to implement than function decorators.
