For a more comprehensive list, we currently have for `get*` functions in `inspect`: `inspect.getdoc`: Returns `None` if the documentation string isn't present, either directly on the object or through it mro. This *isn't* documented. `inspect.getfile`: Explicitly seems to handle None cases. After peeking a bit in the `PyCode_*` interface, it doesn't seem to be possible to assign `None` to the `co_filename` so the returning the `object.co_filename` in the function appears to not be able to return `None`. `inspect.getmodule`: Returns None in a number of cases. This *isn't* documented. `inspect.getsourcefile`: Returns None if the filename indicates an extension module or when none of the ifs are matched. This *isn't* documented. Some (getmodulename, getcomments) do document this. Agreed that the rest of the cases where `None`s might be returned should be documented. ---------- nosy: +Jim Fasarakis-Hilliard _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40838> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
