[New-bugs-announce] [issue19282] dbm is not a context manager

[Nick Guenther]

New submission from Nick Guenther:

This code doesn't work. I think it should.

import dbm
with dbm.open("what is box.db", "c") as db:
   db["Bpoind"] = Boing

Indeed, there is nothing supporting PEP 343 for dbm on my system:
[kousu at galleon ~]$ grep -r __exit__ /usr/lib/python3.3/dbm             
[kousu at galleon ~]$
