        AlgorithmID

An object representing a signature algorithm

Instance Methods [hide private]
 
__init__(...)
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature
a new object with type S, a subtype of T

__new__(T, S, ...)
 
__repr__(x)
repr(x)
 
__str__(x)
str(x)
string)

format(level=0, indent=' ')
:Parameters: level : integer Initial indentation level, all subsequent indents are relative to this starting level.
[(level, string),...]

format_lines(level=0)
:Parameters: level : integer Initial indentation level, all subsequent indents are relative to this starting level.

Method Details [hide private]

__init__(...)
(Constructor)

 
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

Overrides: object.__init__

__new__(T, S, ...)

 


Returns:
a new object with type S, a subtype of T

Overrides: object.__new__

__repr__(x)
(Representation operator)

 
repr(x)

Overrides: object.__repr__

__str__(x)
(Informal representation operator)

 
str(x)

Overrides: object.__str__

format(level=0, indent=' ')

 
:Parameters:
    level : integer
        Initial indentation level, all subsequent indents are relative
        to this starting level.
    indent : string
        string replicated once for each indent level then prepended to output line

This is equivalent to:
indented_format(obj.format_lines()) on an object providing a format_lines() method.

Returns:
string)

format_lines(level=0)

 
:Parameters:
    level : integer
        Initial indentation level, all subsequent indents are relative
        to this starting level.

Formats the object into a sequence of lines with indent level
information.  The return value is a list where each list item is a
tuple.  The first item in the tuple is an integer
representing the indentation level for that line. Any remaining items
in the tuple are strings to be output on that line.

The output of this function can be formatted into a single string by
calling `indented_format()`, e.g.:

    print indented_format(obj.format_lines())

The reason this function returns a tuple as opposed to an single
indented string is to support other text formatting systems such as
GUI's with indentation controls.  See `indented_format()` for a
complete explanation.

Returns:
[(level, string),...]
