Description

Bug Report

Classmethods bound with an additional name trigger stubtest errors.

To Reproduce

Consider the following trivial module and companion typing stub file

# mod.py
class T:
    def a(self): pass
    b = a
    @classmethod
    def c(cls): pass
    d = c
# mod.pyi
class T:
    def a(self) -> None: pass
    b = a
    @classmethod
    def c(cls) -> None: pass
    d = c

then run stubtest the following way:

PYTHONPATH=$PWD stubtest mod

Expected Behavior

stubtest succeeds with no output printed

Actual Behavior

error: mod.T.d variable differs from runtime type def () -> Any
Stub: in file /home/dalcinl/tmp/pkg/mod.pyi:6
def (cls: Type[mod.T])
Runtime: in file /tmp/mod.py:4
<bound method T.c of <class 'mod.T'>>

Found 1 error (checked 1 module)

Please note that the issue comes from a @classmethod, a regular method does not trigger the error.

Your Environment

  • Mypy version used: 1.4.1
  • Mypy command-line flags: none
  • Mypy configuration options from mypy.ini (and other config files): none
  • Python version used: 3.11.4

Research direction

Reproduce the report with the paired mod.py and mod.pyi examples and run PYTHONPATH=$PWD stubtest mod. Compare how stubtest handles T.c and the alias T.d, then verify the change against this reproduction; done means the command succeeds without output or errors.
