_typeshed.structseq: Use Final instead of ClassVar#6825
Merged
Conversation
As discussed in python#6816, for some `structseq` classes these attributes are writeable `ClassVar`s, but for other classes, they're read-only `ClassVar`s. Either way, however, it's probably a bad idea to be modifying these attributes, so it makes sense to simply annotate them with `Final` rather than `ClassVar`. Note that [PEP 591](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0591/) specifically states: > Type checkers should infer a final attribute that is initialized in a class body as being a class variable. Variables should not be annotated with both ClassVar and Final. As such, annotating these attributes as `Final[ClassVar[int]]` would be neither necessary nor possible.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I'm a bit surprised that Final in a class makes the member implicitly ClassVar, but it seems to work.
