no_type_check_decorator doesn't work #1452
Description
The no_type_check_decorator is supposed to let you give the effect of no_type_check to other decorators. pytype doesn't appear to understand it:
from typing import no_type_check_decorator
@no_type_check_decorator
def test(cls):
return cls
@test
class Foo:
x: 5Gives:
File "/tmp/type_test3.py", line 15, in Foo: Invalid type annotation '5' for x [invalid-annotation]
Not a type
mypy is also currently lacking support, they discuss it probably needing special case support directly in the checker.

we would need special-case support directly in the checker too, since this is more of a type-checker directive than something that works with the existing type system.

Since no type checker added support for this decorator after 8 years of it being in the
typingmodule, it has now been deprecated: python/cpython#106309.rchen152 commentedon Jul 13, 2023
Thanks for the update! I'll close this issue then.
