Type checking for dataclasses

[jsh9]

Hi, I'm wondering if there can be support for type checking dataclasses? Currently, when I put @typeguard.typechecked on top of a dataclass definition, no checking happens (unless I'm mistaken).

Thanks!

Here's what I'm doing for this case:

@svermeulen Your gist works! Want to PR this to this project? Can I PR it? It needs a license.

[svermeulen]

Feel free to PR it. I've added MIT license now

Did this get merged?

[agronholm]

No, and I'm not sure what approach I want to take with regards to checking class/instance variable assignments. I don't think I will add support in v3.0. Maybe in a later release.

That's a shame. With typeguard 2 this used to work if I am not mistaken.

[agronholm]

It never did work with typeguard 2.

Hi @agronholm - are you planning to support this in typeguard 4?

Maybe in some follow-up minor release, but not the 4.0 release that is imminent.
