Sorry, my bad. I'm working with an experimental version of
CallTips.py, and apparently it works differently... I should have
tested this before posting.
The problem still exists though; try the following, for example:
class A:
def __init__(self):
"Doc-string for the constructor"
The call-tip for A will be empty, instead of showing the constructor's
doc-string.
In my version, which prefers the __init__ doc-string to the class's
doc-string, the call-tip works for the above example but not for
itertools.count and such. It seems to me that preferring the __init__
doc-string should be the way to go... am I wrong?
