Hello, I'm trying to access the docstrings of various QGIS 2.* components from the IPython console, but instead of the actual documentation I only seem to get dummy docstrings generated by SIP:
>>> QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().mapLayers.__doc__ 'mapLayers(self) -> object' >>> QgsMapLayerRegistry.instance().mapLayer.__doc__ 'mapLayer(self, QString) -> QgsMapLayer' >>> QgsVectorLayer.__doc__ 'QgsVectorLayer(path: QString = QString.null, baseName: QString = QString.null, providerLib: QString = QString.null, loadDefaultStyleFlag: bool = True)' Using help(...) instead of .__doc__ doesn't look much different. Is this just something wrong with my build (from the Fedora stable repository), can somebody reproduce this on a non-Linux build? I've looked through the mailing list archive but haven't found anything conclusive. The flag to have SIP generate docstrings requested here is still enabled: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Sip-flag-to-generate-docstrings-td4485370.html I'm thinking it might have to do with the new SIP file generation workflow described here: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/automatic-sip-files-generation-td5314970.html although I'm not clear on which branch this actually applies to (and whether it might be the source or the solution of my problem)?
