Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Documentation Group: Python 2.4 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Christopher (chrism1) Assigned to: Greg Ward (gward) Summary: optparse: extending actions missing ALWAYS_TYPED_ACTIONS Initial Comment: http://docs.python.org/lib/optparse-adding-new-actions. html This page of docs should include the ALWAYS_TYPED_ ACTIONS list from optparse.py. In the example, unless you add the following line: ALWAYS_TYPED_ACTIONS = Option.ALWAYS_TYPED_ACTIONS + ("dict",) , then the "Value" variable gets no value unless you explicitly pass "type='string'" to parser.add_option(). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Greg Ward (gward) Date: 2006-06-10 12:40 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=14422 Oops! Quite right. Thanks for catching this. This is actually a bug in Optik's documentation, so the real fix is there (rev 517 of Optik svn). Fixed in Python svn: rev 46821 (Doc/lib/liboptparse.tex). This is trunk (Python 2.5) only. (BTW, you forgot to mention which example had this error. Also, the new action in the example is "extend", not "dict". This would have been a bit quicker and easier to fix if those details had been there.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1449311&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
