New submission from Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu>:
IDLE calltips currently contain " # '/' marks preceding args as positional-only." when the signature contains '/' because, before 3.8, '/' was only used by argument clinic and only displayed by inspect.signature. Now that '/' is a regular part of Python, the special note is not needed for the 3.8+ versions of IDLE. The get_argspec docstring also needs updating, and I think the body has some redundant code. The main test change needed is to remove the '/' note from expected returns. I may first isolate any affected tests to minimize the difference between 3.7 and 3.8-9 code, so as to minimize the possibility of merge conflicts in backports. ---------- messages: 365777 nosy: terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal stage: test needed status: open title: IDLE: remove positional-only note from calltips type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40181> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
