Category: Type/class unification Group: Python 2.3 Status: Closed Resolution: Fixed Priority: 3 Submitted By: Michele Simionato (michele_s) >Assigned to: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Summary: Cannot retrieve name of super object Initial Comment: I see that in Python 2.3b1 many problems of super have been fixed, but this one is still there: I cannot retrieve the __name__ of a super object. This generates problems with pydoc, for instance: >>> class C(B): ... sup=super(B) >>> help(C) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site.py", line 293, in __call__ return pydoc.help(*args, **kwds) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/pydoc.py", line 1539, in __call__ self.help(request) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/pydoc.py", line 1575, in help else: doc(request, 'Help on %s:') File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/pydoc.py", line 1368, in doc pager(title % desc + '\n\n' + text.document(object, name)) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/pydoc.py", line 279, in document if inspect.isclass(object): return self.docclass(*args) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/pydoc.py", line 1122, in docclass lambda t: t[1] == 'method') File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/pydoc.py", line 1057, in spill name, mod, object)) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/pydoc.py", line 280, in document if inspect.isroutine(object): return self.docroutine(*args) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/pydoc.py", line 1145, in docroutine realname = object.__name__ AttributeError: 'super' object has no attribute '__name__' P.S. I seem to remember I already submitted this bug (or feature request, as you wish ;) but I don't find it in bugtracker and I had no feedback; maybe it wasn't sent at all due to some connection problem. If not, please accept my apologies.

It's possible one of the subsequent patches broke it. Opening patch again. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Michele Simionato (michele_s) Date: 2003-08-19 00:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=583457 I've just checked today with Python 2.3 (pydoc revision 1.86): class B(object): pass class C(B): sup=super(B) help(C) still gives the same error! What happened? Did you forgot to add the patch to the standard distribution? The bug is not close! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brett Cannon (bcannon) Date: 2003-06-11 23:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=357491 Patched pydoc (revision 1.84) to try an object as "other" if what inspect identifies it as does not work based on its assumptions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brett Cannon (bcannon) Date: 2003-06-10 23:44 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=357491 The issue is inspect.isroutine is saying that the instance is a callable object since it is also a non-data descriptor. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=729103&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
