Speaking out of turn .... Python instance stuff is per Object ...
And from the looks of it's just a dictionary lookup in the
obj.__dict__ dictionary ... So the stuff looks essentially global.
eg.
class Foo:
def __init__(self):
pass
def toString(self):
return self.Name
class FooBar(Foo):
def __init__(self,name):
self.Name=name
a=FooBar("hello")
print a.toString()
------
hello

PS: considering the fact that non-virtual functions are the only portion
holding out the TreeCC Python plugin , I have had quite some heart burn
with this. (or I need a switch statement :)
