Category: Documentation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Michal Krenek (Mikos) (mikos01) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Broken example in optparse module documentation Initial Comment: I have found two bugs in optaparse module documentation. There is example code on http://docs.python.org/lib/optparse-callback-example-6.html, but it doesn't work. First bug is that callback function is named 'vararg_callback', but in parser.add_option is 'callback=varargs' (so to fix it, that callback function must be renamed). Second bug is that there is missing 'dest="some_destination"' argument in parser.add_option. Without it whole example doesn't work (it is throwing 'TypeError: attribute name must be string' exception). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1507379&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
