Usually it does not have __str__, so __repr__ is getting used.
In other cases, the class does have a __str__, and it gets
used, but even then I think it shouldn't if there's a
__unicode__
All this presumes there's a way to diagnose whether files
are wide or narrow -- I'm not familiar enough with the
implementation details here to know if this makes sense or not.
My original message made the point as follows:
If you call str(object), and object's class has a __str__
method, the
value is the value of the __str__ method;
If you print an object to a normal stream, and object's
class has a
__str__ method, what appears is the result of the __str__
method.
If you call unicode(object), and object's class has a
__unicode__ method, the
value is the value of the __unicode__ method;
So far so good, but read on . . .
If you print an object to a unicode stream, and object's
class has a
__unicode__ method, what appears is the result of . . .
_not_ the __unicode__ method, but the __str__ method, if
there is one,
otherwise the usual default |
