[docs] [issue13127] xml.dom.Attr.name is not labeled as read-only

[Stefan Behnel]

Stefan Behnel <stefan_ml at behnel.de> added the comment:

The intended interface seems to be to change .name rather than .localName, so yes, that should be documented somewhere.

The implementation seems a bit funny in that a "self._localName", if set, takes precedence, but there doesn't seem to be an official way to set it. The Attr() constructor even takes a "localname" argument, which it then ignores. o_O
