> Much to my surprise, this works fine. > 1. What exactly is going on? This behavior shouldn't surprise you. You stored a function as an attribute. In fact you could have simply done: py> class bob(object): ... def __init__(self,**kwargs): ... for fname, function in kwargs.items(): ... setattr(self, fname, function) > 2. How can I get ref to self passed to doit() if I want it to? This: > abob.doit(abob) py> import new py> class carol(object): ... def __init__(self, **kwargs): ... for name, method in kwargs.items(): ... setattr(self, name, ... new.instancemethod(method, self, carol)) This should behave as you prefer. --Scott David Daniels [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
