The fix for 5890 has a funny "smell" to me: copying __doc__ into the
instance dict just feels wrong. How does that work with a pure Python
class using slots? E.g.:
class MyProp(property):
pass
class Foo(object):
@property
def bar(self):
'''Get a bar.'''
@MyProp
def baz(self):
'''Get a baz.'''
print Foo.bar.__doc__
print Foo.baz.__doc__
class SlottedFoo(object):
__slots__ = ()
@property
def bar(self):
'''Get a bar.'''
@MyProp
def baz(self):
'''Get a baz.'''
print SlottedFoo.bar.__doc__
print SlottedFoo.baz.__doc__
That being said, I can't this bug as a release blocker: people can
either upgrade to super-current Boost, or stick with 2.6.2 until they can.
