A real answer -- the guy asked a real question and
deserves real answers.

I have solved far more problems via tenacity than
inspiration. So -- a developer needs to be able
to stick to a problem. He needs patience too.
(A little bit of inspiration never hurts Poke tongue | ;-P ).)

He must be a problem solver.
He is unlikely to be a good manager of people.
He must be able to work long hours with only
a computer. But he must no be antisocial.
He is likely to like to solve mazes. Poke tongue | ;-P

He must be able to read. And read well. And
he must be willing to research. There is so much
to be read, studied and research! And he must
be self motivated to do the research on his own.

It would be nice if he can type Poke tongue | ;-P -- really -- I
have known a those that could not type that pecked
their code.

The preceding answer hit it true that he must be
able to go down a path and accept it that he went
the wrong way; take what he did as a learning
experience and start a new solution. He must
realize that there is very rearly only one solution.
Rather there's almost always a better way or
at least another way. And he must be willing to
admit when he has chosen the poor way.

He must be willing to move on, not try for
perfection; but get the job done. Done right;
but not necessarily perfect. (I have seen
a programmer waste lots of time to create an
elegant solution to a problem that could be
solved with a few more lines of code that he
feels is necessary.)

I hope these help -- the MOST important attribute
(as far as I am concerned) is that he be: tenacious.
