I read some discussion on this list before about how sometimes it's
useful to create a generic object class that you can just stick
attributes to. I was reading the PyPanel source (not written by me) and
I came across this:
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------
class Obj(object):
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------
""" Multi-purpose class """
#----------------------------
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
#----------------------------
self.__dict__.update(kwargs)
Normally I'd just use class Obj(object): pass, but the advantage to this
method is you can create an Obj like this:
Obj(id="desktop", last=0, color=self.getColor(DESKTOP_COLOR))
You can pass all the attributes you want the object to have this way.
Nifty :)
Sorry if this has been posted before, but I haven't seen it.
