Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment:
I agree that we need a better pprint. I think it would be easier to create something new rather than try and morph the existing pprint, but maybe I lack enough imagination. I'd prefer to use functools.singledispatch instead of a __pprint__ method, but it doesn't really make a lot of difference. PEP 443 (singledispatch) does use pprint as a motivating example. I tend to agree with Raymond that we don't want to guess what a dataclass class intends as its usage. After all, we deliberately made it easy to add a custom __repr__ (one not generated by dataclasses.dataclass). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43080> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
