PYTH11 — Issue: Python language binding January 2000 Draft

The Python language binding says that IDL attributes are mapped
to Python accessor functions with leading '_'s in their names:

"If an interface defines an attribute name, the attribute is mapped into an
operation _get_name, as defined If the attribute is not readonly, there is an
additional operation _set_name, as defined in chapter 3.11 of CORBA 2.2."

Traditionally, Python attributes and methods with leading '_'s in their
names are considered to be private. The language enforces this in some cases.
For example, names with leading '_'s are not automatically exported from
modules and names used in class definitions are mangled to prevent
external access if they begin with double '_'s and don't end in double
'_'s.

I feel strongly that the language mapping should be
changed to get accessor method names without leading underscore,
as in get_name(), or even just name(), as in the C++ mapping.
