The previous typing meant
threading.ExceptHookArgs
could not be used to type a value.The new typing follows what cpython does in the happy path (
_thread
exists rather than the pure-python fallback being used), a bit different than @srittau's suggestion in the issue.Also,
ExceptHookArgs
is aPyStructSequence
rather than an actual namedtuple, so stubtest complained about it. I changed it to tuple+properties instead. I can also addn_fields
,n_sequence_fields
,n_unnamed_fields
properties which some other structseqs in typeshed use, but seems like obscure internal detail to me so I omitted those.Fixes #4767.
