Subject: Implement __repr__ instead of __str__ for _NumericField
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5abb9e3309c1aa2b622daebd9bea9da67a6554b8;p=deliverable%2Fbabeltrace.git

Implement __repr__ instead of __str__ for _NumericField

__repr__ provides a generic fallback for __str__ and, in the
case of IntegerFields the representation is both human readable
and unambiguous.
