This seems to be a simple confusion over terminology. According Python's own terminology, the following class has a class method, a static method, and an instance method: class C(Object): @classmethod def factory(cls, *args, **kw): My first argument is the class. @staticmethod def something_else(*args, **kw): I get no special args. def an_instance_method(self, *args, **kw): I take an instance as my first arg. So, technically, where the documentation refers to a class method, you really mean an instance method.

I was looking for the *class method* and wondering if there was a typo or something. Iain ___ Repoze-dev mailing list Repoze-dev@lists.repoze.org http://lists.repoze.org/listinfo/repoze-dev
