Hi I am a bit new to python. I was wondering if there is a way to determine whether or not a given string is a member method of a given object:
def is_a_method(self, attr_name): 'returns True if attr_name is an instance method of self; false otherwise' The problem is that I have overridden __repr__ in such a way that it's not self-contained. It makes a call to a member method, call it m(), that would call up getattr() which eventually makes another call back to __repr__: Example output: (<bound method Class.attr_name of "INSTANCE'S __repr__() HERE">). So, I want to trap all attr_name that are methods comeing into m() and make sure they're not passed on to getatrr() i.e. making __repr__ self-contained (hopefully). Is there a simple way to determine a given attr_name is_a_method()? Thanks in advance for all your help. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
