Is there a reason you don't just create a subclass for the one that
needs to call repmeth?
class CC(object):
def m1(self):
print "m1"
def m2(self):
print "m2"
class SpecialCC(CC):
def m1(self):
print "something else!"
if __name__ == '__main__':
a = CC()
b = SpecialCC()
for instance in a, b:
instance.m1()
instance.m2()
--Output--
m1
m2
something else!
m2
Is that what you're looking for, mas o menos?
