* SF bug [#472347] pydoc and properties.Tim Peters2001-10-181-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The GUI-mode code to display properties blew up if the property functions (get, set, etc) weren't simply methods (or functions). "The problem" here is really that the generic document() method dispatches to one of .doc{routine, class, module, other}(), but all of those require a different(!) number of arguments. Thus document isn't general-purpose at all: you have to know exactly what kind of thing is it you're going to document first, in order to pass the correct number of arguments to .document for it to pass on. As an expedient hack, just tacked "*ignored" on to the end of the formal argument lists for the .docXXX routines so that .document's caller doesn't have to know in advance which path .document is going to take.
* docroutine() (both instances): Docstrings for class methods weren'tTim Peters2001-09-271-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | getting displayed, due to a special case here whose purpose I didn't understand. So just disabled the doc suppression here. Another special case here skips the docs when picking apart a method and finding that the im_func is also in the class __dict__ under the same name. That one I understood. It has a curious consequence, though, wrt inherited properties: a static class copies inherited stuff into the inheriting class's dict, and that affects whether or not this special case triggers. The upshoot is that pydoc doesn't show the function docstrings of getter/setter/deleter functions of inherited properties in the property section when the class is static, but does when the class is dynamic (bring up Lib/test/pydocfodder.py under GUI pydoc to see this).
* List class attrs in MRO order of defining class instead of by alphabeticTim Peters2001-09-271-23/+12
| | | | order of defining class's name.
* Removed no-longer-true comment about pydoc working under all versions ofTim Peters2001-09-261-4/+0
| | | | | Python since 1.5 (virtually everything I changed over the last week relies on "modern" features, particularly nested scopes).
* Display a class's method resolution order, if it's non-trivial. "Trivial"Tim Peters2001-09-261-1/+22
| | | | | here means it has no more than one base class to rummage through (in which cases there's no potential confusion about resolution order).
* + Display property functions in the same order they're specified toTim Peters2001-09-251-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | property() (get, set, del; not set, get, del). + Change "Data defined/inherited in ..." header lines to "Data and non-method functions defined/inherited in ...". Things like the value of __class__, and __new__, and class vrbls like the i in class C: i = int show up in this section too. I don't think it's worth a separate section to distinguish them from non-callable attrs, and there's no obvious reliable way to distinguish callable from non-callable attrs anyway.
* + Got rid of all instances of <small>. Under IE5, GUI-mode pydoc hasTim Peters2001-09-251-22/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | always been close to useless, because the <small>-ified docstrings were too small to read, even after cranking up my default font size just for pydoc. Now it reads fine under my defaults (as does most of the web <0.5 wink>). If it's thought important to play tricks with font size, tough, then someone should rework pydoc to use style sheets, and (more) predictable percentage-of-default size controls. + Tried to ensure that all <dt> and <dd> tags are closed. I've read (but don't know) that some browsers get confused if they're not, and esp. when style sheets are in use too.
* GUI mode now displays useful stuff for properties. This is usually betterTim Peters2001-09-251-4/+14
| | | | | than text mode, since here we can hyperlink from the getter etc methods back to their definitions.
* + Text-mode (but not yet GUI mode) pydoc now produces useful stuff forTim Peters2001-09-241-9/+35
| | | | | | | | | | properties: the docstring (if any) is displayed, and the getter, setter and deleter (if any) functions are named. All that is shown indented after the property name. + Text-mode pydoc class display now draws a horizontal line between class attribute groups (similar to GUI mode -- while visually more intrusive in text mode, it's still an improvement).
* More work on class display:Tim Peters2001-09-241-43/+61
| | | | | | | | | + Minor code cleanup, generalization and simplification. + "Do something" to make the attribute aggregation more apparent: - In text mode, stick a "* " at the front of subgroup header lines. - In GUI mode, display a horizontal rule between subgroups. For GUI mode, this is a huge improvement, at least under IE.
* Try to do for pydoc's GUI mode what the earlier checkin did for textTim Peters2001-09-241-9/+92
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mode (identify the source class for class attrs; segregate attrs according to source class, and whether class method, static method, property, plain method, or data; display data attrs; display docstrings for data attrs when possible). Alas, this is mondo ugly, and I'm no HTML guy. Part of the problem is that pydoc's GUI mode has always been ugly under IE, largely because <small> under IE renders docstrings unreadably small (while sometimes non-docstring text is painfully large). Another part is that these segregated listings of attrs would *probably* look much better as bulleted lists. Alas, when I tried that, the bullets all ended up on lines by themselves, before the method names; this is apparently because pydoc (ab?)uses definition lists for format effects, and at least under IE if a definition list is the first chunk of a list item, it gets rendered on a line after the <li> bullet. An HTML wizard would certainly be welcomed here.
