PR Summary
In patheffects.py we have a helper function to reduce the
boiler plate in defining the path effect sub-classes. We are setting
the
__name__
and__doc__
to (templated) values, but were notsetting the
__qualname__
which was leaving the string '' inthe
__qualname__
. This string is then used by sphinx-gallery togenerate an index of examples that use a given class with files named
like
f'{obj.__qualname__}.examples'
which works correctly (but notin the way we want) on liunx but fails on windows as
<>
areforbidden in file names.-
This sets the
__qualname__
to match the__name__
and fullysimulate defining these classes in the module.
The changes that broke this came in via #15515
