Hi all, Is there any reason that under Python you cannot instantiate the object class and create any attributes like you would be able for a normal class?
Python 2.4.2 (#67, Sep 28 2005, 12:41:11) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> a = object() >>> a.data = 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? AttributeError: 'object' object has no attribute 'data' >>> >>> class Object: ... pass ... >>> a = Object() >>> a.data = 1 >>> print "a.data = ", a.data a.data = 1 >>> >>> class Object2(object): ... pass ... >>> b = Object2() >>> b.data = 2 >>> b.data 2 I also tried with Python 2.4.3 with the same results. Being able to do it would seem a natural way of declaring namespaces. -- Pierre Rouleau -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
