#171 UML Viewer parses pydoc strings as code...

[Chris Gahan]

The UML viewer has trouble ignoring big pydoc strings like
this:

""" Here's an example of how to use this class:

class Derived(ThisClass):
def dostuff(self):
self.stuff()
"""

The UML parser will think that Derived is a class in the
UML diagram.

Hi Chris,

It's actually a limitation of the code in moduleparser.

It's not easy to fix and I have no plans to do it soon, patches
welcome.

Thanks,
Riaan.

Ah, yes, I just checked out moduleparse, and it's pretty
complicated. :)

Just out of curiousity, why did you decide to roll your own
module for gathering information about python code instead of
using inspect or pydoc?
