Bug description:
from types import MethodType
from copy import copy, deepcopy
class MyClass:
def __copy__(self):
print("Call __copy__ of class")
return self
def __deepcopy__(self, memo):
print("Call __deepcopy__ of class")
return self
obj1 = MyClass()
obj2 = MyClass()
def copy_func(self):
print("New copy function")
return self
def deepcopy_func(self, memo):
print("New deepcopy function")
return self
obj11 = copy(obj1)
# > Call __copy__ of class
obj12 = deepcopy(obj1)
# > Call __deepcopy__ of class
obj21 = copy(obj2)
# > Call __copy__ of class
obj22 = deepcopy(obj2)
# > Call __deepcopy__ of class
obj1.__copy__ = copy_func.__get__(obj1)
obj1.__deepcopy__ = deepcopy_func.__get__(obj1)
obj2.__copy__ = MethodType(copy_func, obj2)
obj2.__deepcopy__ = MethodType(deepcopy_func, obj2)
obj13 = copy(obj1)
# > Call __copy__ of class
obj14 = deepcopy(obj1)
# > New deepcopy function
obj23 = copy(obj2)
# > Call __copy__ of class
obj24 = deepcopy(obj2)
# > New deepcopy function
Knowing, that binding additional methods to an object after instantiation might not be recommended, the behavior shown above confuses me. My expectation is that copy.copy and copy.deepcopy both use the __copy__/__deepcopy__ method of the actual object passed to it (code). However, copy.copy does not, but rather uses the __copy__ method of the class which could be different from that of the object (code).
Historically, the behavior of copy.copy and copy.deepcopy was first identical (c06e3acc735a6e9cf28d0f511493bcfd8829117d, using the method of the class in both cases), but lateron changed (e690883ccf8081e5baab0e9d71f596f26245b569).
Apart from the differences between the behavior of copy.copy and copy.deepcopy w.r.t. the __copy__/__deepcopy__ methods, the copy.copy method itself takes two different approaches when looking for methods to create the copy: __copy__ is searched inside the class, and in case it is not found, the __reduce_ex__/__reduce__ are looked up in the object (code).

Direção de pesquisa
Comece por Lib/copy.py, nos caminhos de copy e de busca de redução vinculados no relatório, e então execute o reproducer fornecido na versão compatível do Python. Revise os commits históricos mencionados para entender por que copy.copy e copy.deepcopy divergiram. Considera-se concluído quando o comportamento dos métodos copy e deepcopy vinculados à instância estiver resolvido de forma consistente e coberto por um teste de regressão apropriado.
