Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Since the descriptor is classified as a routine (inspect.isroutine() returns True because inspect.ismethoddescriptor() returns True), pydoc outputs it in the "Methods defined here" section and uses the docroutine(). But docroutine() requires the __name__ attribute for determining whether this is an original method or an alias. That descriptor doesn't have the __name__ attribute. Actually it is even not callable, so it is questionable whether it can be classified as a method.
I don't know on what level this should be fixed. docroutine()? classify_class_attrs()? isroutine()? ismethoddescriptor()? ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka, yselivanov _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8488> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
