Published 1.1.389

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed bug that results in a false negative if a | union operator creates a union of generic types. These types should be specialized with default type arguments.
• Fixed bug that results in false negative when raising a value of type None.

Published 1.1.388

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a bug that results in unexpected constraint solver results in certain cases involving arguments with lambda expressions.
• Fixed bug that results in false positive under certain circumstances involving classes parameterized with a contravariant type variable.
• Fixed bug that results in incorrect evaluation of class variables assigned in an __init_subclass__ or __class_getitem__ method. These methods are implicitly class methods even though they are not decorated with @classmethod.
• Removed recent check for illegal identifiers used in alias for dataclass_transform field. This isn't an illegal condition, so the resulting error was a false positive. Instead, changed completion provider to not suggest the illegal identifier as a valid keyword argument.

Enhancements:

• Enhanced the special-case logic for functools.partial so it handles the case where the function has a **kwargs parameter typed with an unpacked TypedDict.
• Improved the synthesized type of the keys, values and items methods on a closed TypedDict to provide a more precise (narrower) type for the key values.
• Improved the handling of a TypeVar whose definition involves a circular definition.
• Added check for __slots__ initialization when the __slots__ list is empty and the class is marked @final.

Published 1.1.387

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed bug that leads to a false negative when passing multiple *args or **kwargs arguments to a callable parameterized by a ParamSpec.
• Fixed issue that results in a false positive "type could not be determined because it refers to itself" error caused by a false dependency due to narrowing logic. This may also improve type analysis performance in some code.
• Switched to a different toml parser to avoid incompatibility with the latest toml standard.
• Changed the evaluated type of an in or not in operator to be bool if the LHS doesn't support containment. Previously, the expression evaluated to Never.
• Fixed a bug that results in a false positive when a class parameterized by a TypeVarTuple is used in conjunction with a Self type.
• Fixed bug that results in incorrect type evaluation when performing protocol matching that involves an attribute with a callable type parameterized by a ParamSpec.

• Improved detection of asymmetric descriptors to handle the case where the __set__ and __get__ methods are overloaded.
• Added experimental support for draft PEP 764: Inlined typed dictionaries.
• Changed check in the pyright VS Code extension for the presence of Pylance. If Pylance is installed in the workspace but is not configured to be loaded (i.e. the "python.languageServer" is set to "None"), then pyright will allow itself to be loaded.

Published 1.1.386

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed issue that results in non-deterministic false positive error, often relating to the "awaitable" check.
• Fixed bug that results in a false positive error when using a traditional generic type alias defined with a "naked" type variable surrounded by Annotated within a Python 3.12 type statement.

• Fixed bug in constraint solver that resulted in behavior that differed depending on the order of methods in a protocol.
• Fixed a bug that results in a spurious error when specializing an old-style generic type alias whose type is defined as a new-style type alias that has multiple type parameters, only some of which are used in its type definition.
• Fixed bug that leads to incorrect type narrowing in the negative ("else") case when using isinstance with a filter type that is typed as type[X].
• Fixed bug that results in a false negative when the specialization of a ParamSpec results in a signature that has a duplicate parameter name where one parameter has a default value and the other does not.

• Improved determinism of type evaluations involving unions of literal by taking into consideration literal values when sorting subtypes.
• Updated typeshed stubs to the latest version.
• Added support for *args: Unpack[T] when T is a type variable with an upper bound of a tuple.

Behavior Changes:

• Removed provisional support for PEP 746 because the PEP has been modified, and there is disagreement about the best approach.
• Changed the default python version from 3.12 to 3.13, now that 3.13 is the latest stable release.

Published 1.1.383

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a bug that resulted in an incorrect error when using a # pyright: standard directive.
• Fixed a bug that leads to incorrect type evaluation when "literal math" for unary operators are applied to a TypeVar value that has a literal value upper bound.
• Fixed bug with the provisional TypeForm support that breaks aliases of Annotated.
• Fixed bug that results in incorrect variance inference for some generic type aliases that use auto variance and nested callable types.
• Fixed bug that resulted in a false negative when assigning a specialized recursive generic type alias to itself when variance of its type parameters are not covariant.
• Fixed several bugs related to the explicit specialization of a generic type alias parameterized by a single ParamSpec. Concatenate was being handled incorrectly.
• Fixed bug that results in a false negative when a type variable is defined with the expression .... This should be flagged as an illegal type expression.
• Fixed bug that caused type alias to Never or NoReturn to lose its type alias association in some circumstances.

Enhancements:

• Improved verbose logging of execution environment information.
• Added code to propagate information about certain typing module imports from an implicitly-imported module (e.g. builtins or __builtins__.pyi) so Final and ClassVar can be treated as special forms by the binder. This fixes the use of these typing symbols in notebooks within pylance, which leverages implicitly-imported modules to "chain together" notebook cells.
• Added check for use of a TypedDict class within a case statement class pattern. This condition generates a runtime error.
• Improved type evaluation performance in certain cases involving protocol matching for complex, nested protocols.

Published 1.1.382

• Fixed bug that results in incorrect type inference for list, set, dict, and tuple expressions that include modules in them.
• Fixed bug that results in false positive error when using a Final variable in a protocol and a NamedTuple or frozen dataclass as a concrete class.
• Fixed bug that results in a false negative when assigning a value to a union type that includes the same type variable multiple times in at least one invariant context. This change eliminates the concept of a "locked" constraint tracker, which is no longer needed and was the underlying cause of the bug.
• Fixed bug that resulted in a "reportIncompatibleMethodOverride" error being reported in the wrong location when a property method has a decorator applied to it.
• Fixed a bug that results in a false positive when assigning Never to a type variable in a contravariant context.

• Fixed bug that results in incorrect type narrowing when a value typed as TypeForm is used as the first argument to isinstance.
• Fixed a bug that can result in a false positive error when a function signature contains a positional-only parameter and a keyword parameter with the same name. This can result from the application of a ParamSpec or through the use of an unpacked TypedDict.
• Fixed a bug that results in incorrect type evaluation behaviors when a class has a custom metaclass with a __call__ method and a __new__ or __init__ method that provides a different bidirectional type inference context for parameters.

Enhancements:

• Added special-case handling for the len(t) == L type guard pattern to handle the negative narrowing case where tuple t has a minimum length of L. In this case, the narrowed type can be computed whereas previously it was left unnarrowed.
• Improved hover text for converters in dataclass-like classes.
• Updated typeshed stubs to the latest version.
• Extended reportUnnecessaryComparison to cover more cases involving is and is not operators.
