Issue 1087735: mmap instance method access bug (original) (raw)

While one is able to get/set slices/items with slice/index notation (mmapi[s:e] or mmapi[s]), one cannot use the function equivalents, mmapi.setslice(), etc.

This seems to be a bug, as nearly all other instances produced by the Python standard library allow instance.special operator to be used.

If I knew what was necessary to expose the function equivalents, I would offer a patch. Being that I don't, I won't.
