Hi all, I'm really a newbie in Python, and I wanted to do a tricky thing. I don't know if it is possible but my intention was: I have a package (namely breve) and I want to alter (override?) some of it's functions preserving the original library/package - in order if I update it, I do not lose my "hacks".
Until now I was overriding the functions directcly on my script and adding them to the package namespace, like this: import testpackage class testClass(): #... testpackage.testClass = testClass But this has a problem. If I wanna use that code over many files, I have to update it manually on all of them every time I update my "hack". I was thinking if it is possible to keep that code on a file - namely testpackageaddon.py and import it on my work file so that by doing that it will automatically override the classes. Like so: import testpackage import testpackageaddon testpackage.testClass() #my hacked class defined on testpackageaddon.py And on testpackageaddon.py: import testpackage class testClass(): #... testpackage.testClass = testClass Any tips, ideas on how to do this? Many thanks. Pedro Machado Santa -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
