Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: By 'Python 3 only', I meant that I am not personally planning to backport to 2.7. I do not want to edit the more complicated get_arg_text and consider other issues higher priority. I meant to include a test case for callable instances, but forgot. When I add to test class TC " def __call__(self, ci): "(self, ci)" tc( gives the inherited TC.__doc__ as the tool tip, which in this case happens to by the artificial "(ai=None, *b)".
Adding the following to get_argspec: # after current if is...type: fob = ... elif isinstance(ob.__call__, types.MethodType): fob = ob.__call__ & or isinstance(ob.__call__, types.MethodType) # to self-strip conditional, as instance is already typed & if isinstance(ob.__call__, types.MethodType): doc = ob.__call__.__doc__ else: # before current doc = line, which gets indented makes this new test pass. fdoc = tc.__call__.__doc__ test('tc', fdoc + "\n" + fdoc) Revised patch with above attached. Note 1: Programming is more fun with decent tests. Note 2: These non-visual automatic test do not completely substitute for visual testing with the gui. When I first used a broader conditional than the 'elif' above, one that caught list.append and [].append, the tests passed, but typing list.append( resulting in weird behavior: something flashed and the typed text moved down a line. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file25828/i12510b.test.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12510> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
