When I do this:
class foo(object):
pass
if __name__=="__main__":
a=foo()
print a.__class__.__name__
Note: You must do it on instance of the class not the class itself.
it prints 'foo' for me. Not exactly sure why you get something very
different. I've used this LOTS of times in my code, but I'll admit
mostly with old-style classes.
