Hi,
Within Python (2.5):

Help on method-wrapper object:
__str__ = class method-wrapper(object)
| Methods defined here:

| __call__(...)
| x.__call__(...) <==x(...)

| __cmp__(...)

What is "method-wrapper"? Google turns up hardly any hits, same with
searching python.org.
Thanks,

What is "method-wrapper"? Google turns up hardly any hits, same with

It probably means that one object (A) contains another object (B).
When you call certain methods on object A, those methods call methods
in B, and return B's results to A's caller.
>From that docstring:
A.__call__() will run B()
A.__cmp__(C) will run cmp(B, C)
etc.
In other words python code which runs A() will be running the
equivalent of A.B(), where A can do other things besides calling B()
if it wants to.
David.

After looking at the code in descrobject.c, I *think* a method-wrapper is
used to create a Python object out of internal methods (stored as C
function pointers in the type structure), as if they were actual Python
methods.
That is, they wrap an internal function pointer (defined in the type)
along with a Python object ("self"), so it can be used in Python code as
it were a normal instance method. But certainly I can be wrong...

OK, so I've gotten into a philosophical disagreement with my colleague at
work. He is a proponent of the Template Method pattern, i.e.:
class foo

void bar() { do_bar(); }

Hi
I have a scenario where I've created another AppDomain to dynamically load a DLL(s) into. In this newly loaded DLL I want to call a static method on a class. The problem arise is that I have the same class/static method definition statictly linked to my EXE and when I call InvokeMember(...), even though I got the Type from the new AppDomain, it calls the static method that I am staticly linked to and not the static method in the dynamicly...

I wrote a template class that takes a function prototype and lets you
store and call a C-level function, like this:
inline string SampleFunction(int, bool) {..}
functor<string (int, bool)> myFunctor = SampleFunction;
string result = myFunctor(7, true);
Works great thanks to the help from this group. Here's the guts so far

I am trying to make a matrix object. I have given it some properites. I
am trying to add a method. When I call the method by Test.showDims(...)
I want to only enter one input, that is the method by which to do it.
As you can see from the object definition that it corresponds to a
function that takes two inputs. When I try to run the script it does
nothing. So what is wrong and how do I fix it? Here is the script.

From reading the documentation, this should be a relatively easy thing. I
have an arraylist of custom class instances which I want to search with
an"indexof" where I'm passing an instance if the class where only the
"searched" property has a value. I expected to get the index into the
arraylist where I could then get the entire class instance. However, the
'indexof' is never calling my overloaded, overrides Equals method. Here is

Hi everyone,
Given the code below, can anyone tell me:
a) Is this normal behaviour ?
b) If it is, what is the reason behind it ? I would expect the
A::method(int) to be inherited by B.

in a generic class, can I code the class so that I can call a static

In the ConvertFrom method of the generic TypeConvert class I want to

if (InValue is string)
return T.Parse((string)InValue);
else
return base.ConvertFrom(context, culture, InValue);

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.
