Hi all,
This is my first post, so sorry for the n00bish question. Let's say I
have 2 classes with the same __init__ method defined in a file foo.py:
class A:
def __init__(self):
pass
class B:
def __init__(self):
pass
For the purpose of a code analysis, I need to get a UNIQUE name for each
of the two __init__ methods. In the Python code object, i can get
co_name and co_filename, which returns me the method name and filename,
respectively, but NOT the enclosing classname. This is a problem since
both A.__init__ and B.__init__ will show up as {co_name: "__init__",
co_filename: "foo.py"} in my analysis. Ideally, I want to distinguish
them by their class names:
{co_name: "__init__", co_filename: "foo.py", classname: "A"}
{co_name: "__init__", co_filename: "foo.py", classname: "B"}
(Simply using their line numbers isn't gonna work for me, I need their
class names.)
Does anyone know how to get this information either from a code object
or from a related object? I am hacking the interpreter, so I have full
access to everything.
I do not quite understand your question. 1) a method is simply a
function accessed as a class attribute. Like all attributes, methods do
not really belong to any particular class, even if they look like they
do. 2) if you access a function as a class attribute, as I presume you
did, then you already know the class.
If you are asking "How to I recover class info after discarding it?",
then the answer is "You can't, don' discard the info!".
