There exists anonymous function, and you could also use a variable to
contain such function. But why no class?
I mean, you could do:
$func = create_function ('$a', 'print $a;');
$func();
or
function test($a)
{
print $a;
}
$func = 'test';
call_user_func( $func, xx);
But there is no:
$class = create_class('' , '');
or
$class = 'MyClass';
class $class {}
Why?

Is there any metaclass trick or something similar to allow anonymous
code blocks?
I'd like to be able to let users do something like this fictitious example:
b = Button()
b.OnClick =:
print "you clicked me"
But that would require adding a special "=:" operator to bind a code
block to a function.

I thought about this problem over the weekend, after long hours of
hacking some metaclasses to allow me to express some real case data
structures as Python classes. I think that this is something with
potential to be useful, but I would like to hear more opinions first.
If this is deemed to be useful, I *may* try to write a PEP for it.
This is not a promise or even a proposal, at this point.

I have a bit of a problem with an overloaded operator that I'm writing that
I have distilled down to an example in the code below. Essentially, I have
an operator function (+=) that takes a reference parameter of class Poly.
If I use it with a named object (of type Poly), as in:
P1+=P4;
where P1 and P4 are both local variables of the class type, it works fine.
If I try to use an anonymous object on the right side, then I get an error...

I read an article that had a really elegant solution to pass parameters
to a thread by using an anonymous method as your ThreadStart. It
seemed pretty slick and even worked when I tried it. However, with
some more playing around, I got some really strange results. Using the
code below, sometimes my output is 2 and 3. Sometimes, it's 3 and 3.
However, it's never been 1 and 2 which is what I would expect. Can

I have always felt that there are a lot of topics that you learned the

For me, two of those topics are inner classes and anonymous classes.
I was thinking of a class Agenda. For it I would use a class Person
which also uses another class Date for her birthday.
When I was modeling Person, I made an atribute to be an object of
class Date. Suddenly I thought that maybe it was a...

Hi,
I need to initialize my class level dictionary (in .Net 2.0). I wanted to
make it inline and employ anonymous methods as I do not use this code for
anything else. Something similar to the following:
private static Dictionary<string, field_fields = delegate()
{
Dictionary<string, fieldresult = new Dictionary<string, field>();
result.Add("Application", new field("Application", "AppName"));

I have just gotten up to speed on what anonymous methods are (syntax,
capabilities, etc), and how they can be used with /called via delegates.
What I am wondering is...
1. Are they only/mostly syntactic sugar (important as that can be)?
2. Are anonymous methods *required* anywhere? That is, are anonymous methods
the only way to accomplish certain tasks in
..NET programming?

Hello!
Here I have some text from a book I read. It says:
"An interesting point to note concerning anonymous methods is that they are
effectively local to the code
block that contains them, and they have access to local variables in this
scope. If you use such a variable
it becomes an outer variable. Outer variables are not disposed of when they
go out of scope like other
local variables are; instead, they live on until the anonymous...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
