Hi Mike. Many thanks for your reply and thank you for reference. I
have code that looks like the following so initially looking at what
will need to be done as it doesn't appear new will survive. So first
need to find way of translating this sort of thing using types. I see
there is a ClassType for types in Python 2.6 but it does not exist in
Python 3 so wonder where this is going? Is this an oversight or maybe
just not ready yet.
import new
class FirstBase(object):
foo = 'bar'
biz = 'baz'
class SecondBase(object):
bla = 'blu'
buz = 'brr'
attr = {
'fiz': 'An attribute', 'fuz': 'Another one'}
Test = new.classobj(
'Test', (FirstBase, SecondBase), attr)
class MyNewClass(Test):
pass
a = MyNewClass()
print a.foo, a.buz, a.fiz, type(a)

I find new is invaluable for some forms of automation. I don't see a
replacement for python 3 either. Many thanks.
You might want to take a look at PEP 3108[1] which says:
new
* Just a rebinding of names from the 'types' module.
* Can also call type built-in to get most types easily.
* Docstring states the module is no longer useful as of revision
27241 (2002-06-15).
