Hello,
I would like to create a hierarchy classes, where the leaves have a
special attribute called "producer_i d". In addition, I would like to
have a function that can give me back the class assigned to any
producer_id value. I tried to implement this with a metaclass, but I
failed. Please help me, what I did wrong?
Thanks,
Laszlo
class ProducerHandler Type(type):
producer_handle rs = {}
@classmethod
def registerProduce rHandler(cls,pr oducer_id):
ph = cls.producer_ha ndlers
if ph.has_key(prod ucer_id):
ccls = ph[producer_id]
raise Exception("This producer already has a calculator:
"+str(ccls) )
else:
print "Registerin g "+str(cls)+ " for producer_id=",p roducer_id
ph[producer_id] = cls
def __init__(cls,na me,bases,dct):
super(ProducerH andlerType,cls) .__init__(cls,n ame,bases,dct)
if hasattr(cls,'pr oducer_id'):
cls.registerPro ducerHandler(ge tattr(cls,'prod ucer_id'))
else:
print "No producer_id for ",str(cls)

Without looking into the details -- the (subclass of) type is meant to be
the class of the class, or the other way round, your normal classes are
instances of (a subclass of) type. You determine the factory Python uses to
make a class by adding
__metaclass__ = factory
to the class body, so you'll probably end with something like
class ProducerHandler Type(type):
# your code
class A:
__metaclass__ = ProducerHandler Type
The subclasses of A will now your invoke customised metaclass machinery.

Thanks, I missed that. I added the __metaclass__ line and it worked like
a charm.

This is the most perfectly succinct description of the __metaclass__
attribute I have ever seen. Beautiful.

I have a question about metaclasses:
How would be the best way to "merge" different metaclasses?
Or, more precisely, what is the best way to merge metaclass functionality?
The idea is basicly the following:
One has several (metaclass) modules that implements an interesting feature.
Lets say, I have a metaclass L, that adds logging capabilities to all method
calls and another one, called P, that creates properties on the fly.

It seems this is a more general way to build classes than inheritance.
Is this a reasonable viewpoint?

....that they warrant an entirely new syntax? It seems that they are
very similar in a very significant way --- they alter the default
behavior of something. IMO, it's not a stretch to say that they
'parallel' metaclasses; that they are to functions/methods what
metaclasses are to classes. So why don't they share a similar syntax?

Hi!
I've just posted a question about metaclasses in ZOPE on the ZOPE
list, and one of the replies said that metaclasses (at least
"painless" metaclasses) cannot be used without new-style classes (or
rather, that they don't work where you cannot explicitly use new-style
classes). I haven't so far been able to find _anything_ on the subject
- what is true here?
TIA,
