Due to the odd nature of Enum classes and instances, the normal methods used by inspect.getmembers and inspect.classify_class_attrs are insufficient.
By special casing Enum inside those two functions the correct information can be returned.
Here is an example of the problem:
=======================================================================================
--> class Test(enum.Enum):
... this = 'that'
... these = 'those'
... whose = 'mine'
... name = 'Python'
... value = 'awesome'
... def what(self):
... return "%s is %s!" % (self.name, self.value)
... 
--> help(Test)
Help on Test in module __main__ object:
class Test(enum.Enum)
 | Method resolution order:
 | Test
 | enum.Enum
 | builtins.object
 | 
 | Data and other attributes defined here:
 | 
 | these = <Test.these: 'those'>
 | 
 | this = <Test.this: 'that'>
 | 
 | whose = <Test.whose: 'mine'>
 | 
 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 | Data descriptors inherited from enum.Enum:
 | 
 | name
 | The name of the Enum member.
 | 
 | value
 | The value of the Enum member.
 | 
 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 | Data descriptors inherited from enum.EnumMeta:
 | 
 | __members__
 | Returns a mapping of member name->value.
 | 
 | This mapping lists all enum members, including aliases. Note that this
 | is a read-only view of the internal mapping.
(END)
=======================================================================================
As can be seen, 'name' and 'value' are not showing up as enum members.
