Of course, yes : In [1]: class a(object) : pass ...: In [2]: a.__dict__ Out[2]: <dictproxy object at 0xa7e01d34> In [3]: a.__dict__.items() Out[3]: [('__dict__', <attribute '__dict__' of 'a' objects>), ('__module__', '__main__'), ('__weakref__', <attribute '__weakref__' of 'a' objects>), ('__doc__', None)] In [4]: a.__dict__['foo'] = lambda s : True --------------------------------------------------------------------------- exceptions.TypeError... TypeError: object does not support item assignment hmmm, not this way, but : In [5]: a.foo = lambda s : True In [6]: a.__dict__.items() Out[6]: [('__dict__', <attribute '__dict__' of 'a' objects>), ('__module__', '__main__'), ('foo', <function <lambda> at 0xa79528ec>), ('__weakref__', <attribute '__weakref__' of 'a' objects>), ('__doc__', None)] In [7]: a().foo() Out[7]: True or : In [9]: setattr(a, 'bar', lambda s : False) In [10]: a().bar() Out[10]: False -- _____________ Maric Michaud _____________ Aristote - www.aristote.info 3 place des tapis 69004 Lyon Tel: +33 426 880 097 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
