52.3 TextReprOptions object

The TextReprOptions object is used to configure the output of the Python str() command within Abaqus/CAE. (The str() command is used by the Python print function.) The TextReprOptions object stores the various settings that determine how objects are printed on the Python command line.

The TextReprOptions object has no constructor. Abaqus creates the textReprOptions member when a session is started.

Access

import textRepr
textReprOptions
session.textReprOptions

52.3.1 setValues(...)

This method modifies the TextReprOptions object.

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

style

A SymbolicConstant specifying the style of the text representation. Possible values are:
RECURSIVE: return a recursive representation of the object.
SIMPLE: return a String representing the object as either 'interface object', 'dictionary object', or 'sequence object'.
The initial value is RECURSIVE.

maxRecursionDepth

An Int, SymbolicConstant, or None specifying the maximum depth to which the object will be printed. Possible values for the depth are Ints 0, the SymbolicConstant UNLIMITED, or None. A value of None implies that the current setting in the TextReprOptions object will be used. If object is not an Abaqus object, maxRecursionDepth has no effect. The default value is None.

maxRecursionString

A String specifying the string to be returned when the maximum depth of recursion is reached. The string can include a format specifier (%s), which will be substituted by the object type. The initial value is '%s object'.

maxElementsInSequence

An Int or the SymbolicConstant UNLIMITED specifying the maximum number of elements of a sequence to return. Possible values are UNLIMITED or Ints 0. The initial value is 100. After the maximum number of elements, the remainder are indicated by the string '...'.

Return value

None

Exceptions

None.

52.3.2 Members

The TextReprOptions object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the setValues method.
