Thanks guys i had no idea about these method attributes and also these underlying oop __objects__
@ eryksun i understand your explanation, im still having trouble figuring out how django is being used in the tutorial. class Poll(models.Model): # ... def was_published_recently(self): return self.pub_date >= timezone.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1) was_published_recently.admin_order_field = 'pub_date' was_published_recently.boolean = True was_published_recently.short_description = 'Published recently?' list_filter = ['pub_date'] search_fields = ['question'] date_hierarchy = 'pub_date' if you look at the diagram under that function, why is the value of "was_published_recently.short_description" the title of that field? replacing the old title? is a "short_desccription" attribute set somewhere in django being inactive, but once you make use of this attribute(or keyword), whatever the value is automatically becomes the field title? is it the same for boolean being the value of the field with the checked or unchecked symbol? _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
