I was trying for a while, but I could not implement a 'classproperty'
function. Is it possible at all?
Thanks,

You could define a "normal" property in the metaclass: > class A:
.... class __metaclass__(t ype):
.... @property
.... def clsprp(cls): return 42
.... A.clsprp
42

The only way I could do this is:
class MyXMetaClass(ty pe):
_x = 0
def get_x(cls):
print "Getting x"
return cls._x
def set_x(cls,value ):
cls._x = value
print "Set %s.x to %s" % (cls.__name__,v alue)
x = property(get_x, set_x)
class A(object):
__metaclass__ = MyXMetaClass
print A.x
A.x = 8
Results in:
Getting x
0
Set A.x to 8
But of course this is bad because the class attribute is not stored in
the class. I feel it should be.
Suppose we want to create a class property, and a class attribute; and
we would like the property get/set methods to use the values of the
class attributes.
A real example would be a class that keeps track of its direct and
subclassed instances:
class A(object):
cnt = 0
a_cnt = 0
def __init__(self):
A.cnt += 1
if self.__class__ is A:
A.a_cnt += 1
class B(A):
pass
print A.cnt,A.a_cnt # 0,0
b = B()
print A.cnt,A.a_cnt # 1,0
a = A()
print A.cnt,A.a_cnt # 2,1
But then, I may want to create read-only class property that returns the
cnt/a_cnt ratio.
This now cannot be implemented with a metaclass, because the metaclass
cannot operate on the class attributes:
class A(object):
cnt = 0
a_cnt = 0
ratio = a_class_propert y_that_returns_ the_cnt_per_a_c nt_ratio() # ????
def __init__(self):
A.cnt += 1
if self.__class__ is A:
A.a_cnt += 1
Any ideas?

Huh? Every function in the metaclass takes the class object as the
first parameter. So they can all operate on the class attributes:
py> class A(object):

Using Peter's advice (not tested beyond what you see): class A(object):
... _x = 0
... class __metaclass__(t ype):
... def get_x(cls):
... print "Getting x..."
... return cls._x
... def set_x(cls,value ):
... print "Setting x..."
... cls._x = value
... x = property(get_x, set_x)
... A.x
Getting x...
0 A.x = 8
Setting x... A.x
Getting x...
8 vars(A).items()
[('__module__', '__main__'), ('__metaclass__ ', <class '__main__.__met aclass__'>), ('_x', 8), ('_
_dict__', <attribute '__dict__' of 'A' objects>), ('__weakref__', <attribute '__weakref__' of 'A
' objects>), ('__doc__', None)] A._x
8 vars(A).keys()
['__module__', '__metaclass__' , '_x', '__dict__', '__weakref__', '__doc__']
