Steven Vascellaro <stevois...@gmail.com> added the comment: Alternatively, the most intuitive solution would be to give `Element` an explicit `__str__` method.
The current behavior of `str(Element)` is to return the object's location in memory. ``` from xml.etree import ElementTree xml = ElementTree.Element('Person', Name='John') print(str(xml)) # Output: <Element 'Person' at 0x028575D0> ``` Unfortunately, changing this behavior could cause issues with backwards compatibility. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33561> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
