[issue14824] reprlib documentation references string module
Berker Peksag added the comment: I don't know why we would ever have a space in a typename, ever (and if someone does awful hacks to get to that state, he should probably also do awful hacks to make reprlib work properly). That part of the code has been added 22 years ago: https://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/a0d4c5ef1d5d#l9.22 So probably the reason is that the code is just old. Thanks for the patch, Chris! -- assignee: docs@python - berker.peksag nosy: +berker.peksag resolution: - fixed stage: patch review - resolved status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue14824 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Chris Rebert added the comment: Updated patch. I concur that anyone creating a type whose name has whitespace in it is just asking for trouble. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file27009/reprlib.rst.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue14824 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Jasper St. Pierre jstpie...@mecheye.net added the comment: The documentation is just flat out wrong, actually: if ' ' in typename: parts = typename.split() typename = '_'.join(parts) The documentation is claiming the inverse. I don't know why we would ever have a space in a typename, ever (and if someone does awful hacks to get to that state, he should probably also do awful hacks to make reprlib work properly). It would be for the best if we could just remove this brain damage, but whatever. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue14824 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Patch. Though I ponder whether the expression in question might be equivalent
to simply:
type(obj).__name__.replace('_', ' ')

[issue14824] reprlib documentation references string module
Jasper St. Pierre jstpie...@mecheye.net added the comment: Yes. Yes it would. In my opinion, it really shouldn't do this sort of name mangling, as it's a terrible idea, but whatever. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue14824 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue14824] reprlib documentation references string module
New submission from Jasper St. Pierre jstpie...@mecheye.net: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/reprlib.html Formatting methods for specific types are implemented as methods with a name based on the type name. In the method name, TYPE is replaced by string.join(string.split(type(obj).__name__, '_')). Dispatch to these methods is handled by repr1(). Type-specific methods which need to recursively format a value should call self.repr1(subobj, level - 1). Outstanding. -- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 160805 nosy: docs@python, magcius priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: reprlib documentation references string module versions: Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue14824 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
