Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Mark Hirota (markhirota) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Switch to make pprint.pprint display ints and longs in hex Initial Comment: It would be nice to have some sort of switch or hook to allow 'pretty-printing' of integers and long integers in hexidecimal. So, for example: >>> import pprint >>> pprint.pprint(range(10)) # instead of this: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] >>> pprint.hexint = True >>> pprint.pprint(range(10)) # you would get this: [0x0, 0x1, 0x2, 0x3, 0x4, 0x5, 0x6, 0x7, 0x8, 0x9] >>> pprint.pprint(range(0x100000000,0x100000010)) # and this: [0x100000000L, 0x100000001L, 0x100000002L, 0x100000003L, 0x100000004L, 0x100000005L, 0x100000006L, 0x100000007L, 0x100000008L, 0x100000009L, 0x10000000AL, 0x10000000BL, 0x10000000CL, 0x10000000DL, 0x10000000EL, 0x10000000FL] >>> Thanks, --MH ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Walter Dörwald (doerwalter) Date: 2005-11-10 23:56 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=89016 In theory this should be possible by subclassing pprint.PrettyPrinter and overwritting the format method: import pprint class MyPrettyPrinter(pprint.PrettyPrinter): def format(self, object, context, maxlevels, level): if isinstance(object, int): return hex(object), True, False else: return pprint.PrettyPrinter.format(self, object, context, maxlevels, level) mpp = MyPrettyPrinter() mpp.pprint(range(50)) This doesn't work reliable though: When the string is short enough, format() seems to be bypassed and repr() is called directly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reinhold Birkenfeld (birkenfeld) Date: 2005-11-09 22:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1188172 Moving to Feature Requests. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=355470&aid=1351692&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
