[Python-projects] Type inference not working?

[Maarten ter Huurne]

Hi,

If I run the following code fragment through PyLint:
===
class SomeClass(object):

    def __m(self):
        pass

    SomeClass().__m()
===
I get this warning: (among others)
===
W:  6:SomeClass: Access to a protected member __m of a client class
===

It doesn't matter if I put that line in the class body, in a static method
or in an instance method.

I know that type inference can be difficult to get right in some cases, but
this case seems simple enough. Am I expecting too much or is there a bug
somewhere?

pylint 0.14.0,
astng 0.17.2, common 0.22.1
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, May  2 2007, 16:56:35)

Bye,
            Maarten
