Best way to add attributes to shelved objects?


I'm working on an app that persists a few classes with shelve. But if I
load older saved classes, I get an exception in code that uses the new
attributes, of course.

What is the best way to load these older classes, check for the new
attributes, and add them so they will work with the new code?

I have started using classes with Python and have a question about their use. In Python, 'attributes are all "public" and "virtual" in C++ terms; they're all accessible everywhere and all looked up dynamically at runtime' (Quoting "Learning Python", 2nd. ed., p367). It seems to me that two good conventions are to (1) initialize all attributes in the __init__ function (2) avoid creating new attributes elsewhere that are not initialized...

Hello, I am trying to use vs.net 2005 to migrate a project originally in vs.net 2003. I started with creation of a "web site", and then created folders for each component of the site. I read somewhere that each folder under the "web site" is compiled in separate assembly. I however, did not find that the "web site" creation in vs.net 2005 created any AssemblyInfo.cs file.

I've been reading about Python Classes, and I'm a little confused about how Python stores the state of an object. I was hoping for some help. I realize that you can't create an empty place holder for a member variable of a Python object. It has to be given a value when defined, or set within a method. But what is the difference between an Attribute of a Class, a Descriptor in a Class, and a Property in a Class?

I've been creating an application over the last few weeks and generally pleased with what I have produced but one area is irritating me, form validation. At the moment the forms are simply static html templates and the form input is checked using a validation class. Basically each form field is checked, every error is stored to an array and at the end of checking of the complete form, the array is output neatly at the top of the form. ...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
