Hi all,
This is more a Python issue than a Django one, but I thought the
Python-aware people that you are might be able to help me :)
I would like to do something like:
def called(arg)
if arg==True:
!!magic!!caller.return 1
def caller(arg)
called(arg)
return 2
Here, the fake !!!magic!!! represents a statement (which I ignore)
that would make the caller function return a value different from what
it'd return normally.
For example, caller(True) would return 1, and caller(False) would
return 2. The reason I want that is because I don't want the caller
function to know what's going on in the called function, and be
shortcut if the called function think it's necessary.
Would you know if that's possible, and if so, how?
I've done a bit of research and I think I've found some good pointers,
in particular using the 'inspect' library:
import inspect
def called(arg)
if arg==True:
caller_frame = inspect.stack()[1]
...
Here 'caller_frame' contains the frame of the caller function. Now,
how can I make that frame return a particular value?
Hope that was clear... :/
Thanks!
Julien
