Hello tutorians,
Am I missing something or don't classes know how they're called (unlike funcs,
which have a __name__ attribute, very practicle)? Is there a way to get it
otherwise?
The point is to have a super-type define a general __repr__ like eg:
class SuperType:
# ...
def __repr__ (sef):
return "%s(stuff)" % (self.__class__.__name__, stuff)
But I need each class to know its name. Subtypes are actually defined by users
(of a lib), presently they are forced to write the name explicitely, which is
stupid since they already give it as var name:
class SubType (SuperType):
__name__ = "SubType"
# ....
Denis
