__getitem__ and classmethod/staticmethod


Hi.

Is it possible to make a classmethod out of __getitem__?

I.e. I want to do:

class C:
def __getitem__(p):
return 1+p

__getitem__ = classmethod(__getitem__)

So that C[3] works (in addition to C()[3]). But I always get
TypeError: unsubscriptable object
