I'm not sure what you're expecting it to do, but type.__init__ does not actually do anything > It seems really weird, 'type' is an instance of 'type' itself, I'm not sure > if I'm calling the unbound method __init__ or bound method __init__. type.__init__ is never bound. > It seems type.__new__ calls type.__init__ before it calls Py2Type.__init__, > because dict_ is already copied to cls.__dict__ at line(#ref3). No, type.__new__ does not call type.__init__ at all. Rather, it is type.__new__ that is responsible for copying the dict, not type.__init__. For this reason you should override type.__new__ in your metaclass, not type.__init__. Cheers, Ian -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
