Zachary Ware added the comment: Ok, I found the source of the real issue alluded to in the misguided comment about the 'cls' -> 'type' change that I left on Rietveld.
I was under the impression that with that change, 'help(datetime.datetime.now)' would show a signature of 'now(type, tz=None)'. In actual fact, 'str(inspect.signature(datetime.datetime.now))' (correctly) returns (tz=None), and that's what help (incorrectly) displays. To properly match the help output of Python-implemented methods, pydoc will need to add in the 'self' or 'cls' parameter somehow. However, I think that situation can be resolved in another issue in favor of getting this in, with the few issues I pointed out on Rietveld fixed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20189> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
