[Jython-dev] optional 3rd argument to getattr

[Peter M. <ma...@en...>]

I didn't find any mention of this on the Jython vs CPython page or in
the list archive so FYI:

 $ python                                
Python 2.0 (#4, Dec  7 2000, 22:16:55) 
[GCC 2.95.2 20000220 (Debian GNU/Linux)] on linux2
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> getattr("a", "b", "c")
'c'

but:

 $ jython
Jython 2.0 on java1.3.0 (JIT: null)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> getattr("a", "b", "c")
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: getattr(): expected 2 args; got 3
