I've got a few classes that inherit from an abstract class. At some point, I want to check and make sure that an object is an instance of the base class, but this always seems to fail. I've posted what I know and what I think may be relevant below.
Is isinstance() not matching because the RequisitionOrderItem.__mro__ classes have decotrack (my project) prepended, while OrderItem does not? Why is this? They come from the same models.py # base/models.py # # class OrderItem(models.Model): # ... # class Meta: # abstract = True # # class RequisitionOrderItem(OrderItem): # ... >>> from base.models import OrderItem, RequisitionOrderItem >>> RequisitionOrderItem.__mro__ (<class 'decotrack.base.models.RequisitionOrderItem'>, <class 'decotrack.base.models.OrderItem'>, <class 'django.db.models.base.Model'>, <type 'object'>) >>> OrderItem.__mro__ (<class 'base.models.OrderItem'>, <class 'django.db.models.base.Model'>, <type 'object'>) >>> roi = RequisitionOrderItem.objects.all()[0] >>> isinstance(roi, RequisitionOrderItem) True >>> isinstance(roi, OrderItem) False --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
