That kind of surprises me. I thought that the whole code will be
parsed before actually doing something. Like C# :)
But save() is not overridden! If I comment out super() it still saves
the form.
-----
class ProfileFormExtended(UserProfile):
def save(self, force_insert=False, force_update=False):
#super(ProfileFormExtended, self).save
(force_insert,force_update)
-----
I have UserProfile(models.Model) defined. Then I inherit this class by
writing ProfileFormExtended(UserProfile) after that I create a
ModelForm class ProfileForm(models.ModelForm) which has a meta
attribute model=ProfileFormExtended which tells the ModelForm to use
the inherited ProfileFormExtended class to create a form. Up to here
it's working.
What it does NOT do is using ProfileFormExtended.save() instead of
UserProfile.save(). And that although it uses ProfileFormExtended.
What am I missing???
