I'm trying to get functions wrapped via boost to show
up as builtin types so that pydoc includes them when
documenting the module containing them. Right now
boost python functions are created using a PyTypeObject
such that when inspect.isbuiltin does:
return isinstance(object, types.BuiltinFunctionType)
FYI, this may not be the "right" way to do this, but since 2.3
'isinstance()' looks at an object's __class__ rather than its type(),
so you could perhaps include a '__class__' descriptor in your method
type that returns BuiltinFunctionType and see if that works.
It's a kludge, but it might let your code work with existing versions
of Python.
It works in Python 2.3.0:
import types
class FakeBuiltin(object):
__doc__ = property(lambda self: self.doc)
__name__ = property(lambda self: self.name)
__self__ = property(lambda self: None)
__class__ = property(lambda self: types.BuiltinFunctionType)
def __init__(self, name, doc):
self.name = name
self.doc = doc
>>> help(FakeBuiltin("name", "name(foo, bar, baz) -> rval"))
Help on built-in function name:
name(...)
name(foo, bar, baz) -> rval
