Mark Shannon <m...@hotpy.org> added the comment: Serhiy, thanks for reopening this issue.
It seems to be that there are three reasonable choices: 1. Revert to 3.6 behaviour, with the addition of `docstring` attribute. 2. Change the docstring attribute to an AST node, possibly by modifying the grammar. 3. Do nothing. I would prefer 1, as it requires no changes to 3rd party code and doesn't present an additional obstacle when porting from Python 2. 2 would be acceptable, as it allows tools to easily convert the body back to its 3.6 form (or vice-versa) 3 is a pain as it involves re-tokenizing the file to get the location of the doc-string. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32911> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
