No Vordok that still would not work. Daves example is the direction he would
need to go. In the origin question, the example makes no real association
with the item and the item list. Also, if you pass a function as the default
arg like that, it will evaluate only once when the func is defined. For
wanting to have an arg that uses a default function as its value you could
do:
def myFunc(value=None):
if value is None:
value = someFunction()
But yes, really the issue is what Dave addresses by creating classes where a
parent class stores the child classes and also sets a reference to itself (
the parent) when adding in a child.
