[issue9840] Recursive Repr
Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment: Good idea. I wonder if the genericity (being able to specify the placeholder) is needed; the ellipsis is used by built-in containers (not documented AFAICT, see #9842) and seems a good choice for most (all?) of the cases. What bothers me is that this simple, common case can’t just use @recursive_repr (without parens) which seems to me more natural. One markup glitch: :meth:`repr__` lacks two underscores. (Unimportant side question: Since collections defines __all__, why are imported names renamed with a trailing underscore?) -- nosy: +eric.araujo ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9840 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
