New submission from Raymond Hettinger <raymond.hettin...@gmail.com>:
The current __repr__ for structseq only shows the name/value pairs for the
positional part and it ignores the other named fields.
For example, os.stat(somefile) returns:
posix.stat_result(st_mode=33277, st_ino=8468407, st_dev=234881026, st_nlink=1,
st_uid=0, st_gid=80, st_size=25424, st_atime=1301263901, st_mtime=1298229258,
st_ctime=1298283922)
but it doesn't show the other named fields and their values:
{'st_ctime': 1298283922.0, 'st_rdev': 0, 'st_mtime': 1298229258.0, 'st_blocks':
56, 'st_flags': 0, 'st_gen': 0, 'st_atime': 1301263901.0, 'st_blksize': 4096,
'st_birthtime': 1298229258.0}
The __reduce__ method for structseq returns both the tuple portion and the
dictionary portion. The latter needs to be added to the repr so that
information doesn't get hidden from the user.
