I had always been negative on the boldeness of python on insisting that
unbound methods should have been applied only to its im_class instances.
Anyway this time I mixed in rightly, so I post this for comments.
###### looking for a discovery .Start #################
class _Mixin(object):
def __init__(self,main,instance,*args,**kwargs):
# do mixin businnes
main.__reinit__(self,instance) # the caveated interface
# probably missing __reinit__ in main
# one could assume main.__init__ should do
def mixinMethod(self):
print 'mixinMethod on',repr(self)
def Mixin(instance,*args,**kwargs):
klass=instance.__class__
return type('Mix+%s'%klass.__name__,(_Mixin,klass),{})(klass,instance)
############ end of hot water discovery ##########
class Base(object):
def __reinit__(self,another):
# do something so that self is like another (painful in general)
# easy for mutables, impossible for other
pass
b=Base()
b=Mixin(b)
assert isinstance(b,Base)
b.mixinMethod() # doesn't fail with absurds
#### The next doesn't work ####
# l=[1,2,3]
# l.__reinit__=l.__init__ # exception IMAConservativeLanguage
class L(list):
__reinit__=lambda self,other:list.__init__(self,other)
l=L([1,2,3])
l=Mixin(l)
l.mixinMethod()
