InStream.logging_file_path setter type hint is not effective
logging_file_path currently has the following type hints, because we wanted to allow setting it using either a pathlib.Path
or a str
:
@property
def logging_file_path(self) -> Optional[pathlib.Path]: ...
@logging_file_path.setter
def logging_file_path(self, val: Optional[Union[str, pathlib.PurePath]]): ...
@logging_file_path.deleter
def logging_file_path(self): ...
However, we were previously running mypy separately for the nidaqmx
package and its tests. Combining these runs revealed that mypy doesn't honor the setter's type hint:
tests\component\task\test_in_stream_read_properties.py:139: error: Incompatible types in assignment (expression has type "str", variable has type "Optional[Path]") [assignment]
tests\component\task\test_in_stream_read_properties.py:159: error: Incompatible types in assignment (expression has type "str", variable has type "Optional[Path]") [assignment]
