Nick Coghlan added the comment: Agreed, making it easy to follow the inheritance chains at docstring lookup time means it would be redundant to duplicate them at class definition time.
Code that interrogates __doc__ directly rather than using inspect.getdoc won't benefit from the new behaviour, but that's a quality of implementation question in the code handling the introspection. ---------- resolution: -> out of date stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15731> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
