From 8ac8be59885f27a1afbcc978be0dc0ceea554aa4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Peters Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2001 04:08:16 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] docroutine() (both instances): Docstrings for class methods weren't getting displayed, due to a special case here whose purpose I didn't understand. So just disabled the doc suppression here. Another special case here skips the docs when picking apart a method and finding that the im_func is also in the class __dict__ under the same name. That one I understood. It has a curious consequence, though, wrt inherited properties: a static class copies inherited stuff into the inheriting class's dict, and that affects whether or not this special case triggers. The upshoot is that pydoc doesn't show the function docstrings of getter/setter/deleter functions of inherited properties in the property section when the class is static, but does when the class is dynamic (bring up Lib/test/pydocfodder.py under GUI pydoc to see this). --- Lib/pydoc.py | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/Lib/pydoc.py b/Lib/pydoc.py index e5c350bf35f..1e333398b88 100755 --- a/Lib/pydoc.py +++ b/Lib/pydoc.py @@ -759,7 +759,6 @@ TT { font-family: lucidatypewriter, lucida console, courier } if cl: if imclass is not cl: note = ' from ' + self.classlink(imclass, mod) - skipdocs = 1 else: if object.im_self: note = ' method of %s instance' % self.classlink( @@ -1117,7 +1116,6 @@ class TextDoc(Doc): if cl: if imclass is not cl: note = ' from ' + classname(imclass, mod) - skipdocs = 1 else: if object.im_self: note = ' method of %s instance' % classname(
