I was trying django (0.91) out yesterday and ran into a ui problem with
that. In tutorial it's advised to have a __repr__(self) defined for
models, and I did, except for one model where it was wrong:
- -
class Foo (meta.Model):
name = meta.CharField (maxlength=100):
def __repr__(self):
return name;
- -
note missing 'self.' from __repr__.
The surprising result was that I got a _plaintext_ backtrace, not the
pwetty one :)
Is it a bug or intended behaviour? (backtrace was pretty much useless)
