You can use something like this:
def mydecorator( f ):
def decorated(self, *args):
for i in f(self, *args):
yield i
decorated.__doc__ = 'madeup doc string'
return decorated
class Example( object ):
@mydecorator
def foo(self, a, b, ):
yield 1
print( help( Example ) )
But realise that when the decorator ("mydecorator" above) is
run neither the class ("Example") or the instance (self) is
available. Which limits somewhat the debugging information
you can attach automatically.
