I've also tried within the python interpreter, and it can perfectly
solve docstring inheritance. So why would you explicitly assign
docstring to child methods ?
What do you mean by "can perfectly solve docstring inheritance" ?
After the following,
class Foo(object):
def foo(self):
"Frobber"
pass
class Bar(Foo):
def foo(self):
pass
help(Bar.foo) does not display "Frobber" on my interpreter.
You're right. I must have made some dumb mistake. So interpreters do not
solve docstring inheritance, Epydoc does.
