I'm developing a thing that gathers data as follows:
1. For all files of a certain name:
I. for all lines in each of those files:
i. split the /-separated values in each of those lines,
and stuff them into a list (or dict or whatever)
.... and this is for a hundred or so such files of that name, with each
file having a hundred or so of such lines, with each line having 10 or
so of such /-sep'd values.
I thought that an instructive way of doing this would be to have a
class describing each of these files and their contents, and create a
new instance of this class for each file. As I'm writing this, it
occurs to me that I could stick to a numbered naming convention (e.g.,
df1, df2, etc) for when I need to access this data later in the
program. But is there a way for me to list all instances of a certain
class? I.e., if the classname were FileInfo, and I had hundred
objects of that class, could I somehow loop:
for all objects created from FileInfo
do some stuff
TIA for any help. I'll get used to Python sooner or later =)

I don't think there is, in general. If, as in your example, you can
modify the __init__ method of the class, you could add weak references
to created instances to a class member list. It would be even nicer,
though, to make a metaclass, instances of which maintain (weak)
references to instances of themselves.

I have a Shared Object which its sole purpose is to create objects of
a certain type and return a pointer to the object to the user.
Therefore, the user becomes the owner of this object and is resposible

I'm a real Python NEWB and am intrigued by some of Python's features, so I'm
starting to write code to do some things to see how it works. So far I
really like the lists and dictionaries since I learned to love content
addressability in MATLAB. I was wondering it there's a simple routine (I
think I can write a recurisve routine to do this.) to scan all the elements
of a list, descending to lowest level and change something. What I'd like...

I have an object that has a fairly complex construction sequence, so I have
written a dedicated "factory" class that invokes the constructor of my object
class (which does nothing but instantiate the object and set default
blank/null values), and then does all the Db access and number crunching to
populate the new object. The factory returns the fully populated object to
the caller. All the fields in the object are private, but have...

Hi all,
I've recently been following the object-oriented techiques discussed
here and have been testing them for use in a web application. There is
problem that I'd like to discuss with you experts.
I would like to produce Javascript classes that can be "subclassed"
with certain behaviors defined at subclass time. There are plenty of
ways to do this through prototyping and other techniques, but these
behaviors need to be static and...

Hello,
I'm trying to use a (remote) COM object from a PHP script (4.4, server has
apache2 win32).
The basics seem to work : I instantiate the COM object ($o = new COM"..."),
then I use two of the objects methods to authenticate. In the meantime a
property called "ProjectConnected", passes from 0 to 1. So I think the
object is correctly instanciated and the connection works.

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,...
