Hi,

I realize my question is somewhat off-topic for the pytables
community, but the problem originates from my using pytables.  In the
skeleton code below I do not like to use the function's name to get
the doc string.

def dumFunction():
    """This function will gain me with the Nobel Prize...in another life."""
    fp = openFile("res.h5", mode='a')
    results = []
    resArray = fp.createArray(fp.root, "Pete", results, dumFunction.__doc__)


Now I would rather not pass dumFunction.__doc__ as an argument.
Instead, I want to use something like the C++ pointer this, that is,
something like this.__doc__. In other words, how do I get a reference
to the doc string, without having to use the function's name?

Thanks.

Nicky
