Hello All, I have a question about decorators, and I think an illustration would be helpful. Consider the following simple class:
#begin code class Foo: def fooDecorator(f): print "fooDecorator" def _f(self, *args, **kw): return f(self, *args, **kw) return _f @fooDecorator def fooMethod(self): print "fooMethod" f = Foo() f.fooMethod() #end of code This code runs, and actually serves my purpose. However, I'm a little confused about three things and wanted to try and work through them while I had the time to do so. I believe all of my confusion is related to the parameters related to the fooDecorator: -how I would pass arguments into the fooDecorator if I wanted to (my various attempts have failed) -what the difference is between decorating with @fooDecorator versus @fooDecorator() -why does this code even work, because the first argument to fooDecorator isn't self I'm searched the net and read the PEPs that seemed relevant, but I didn't see much about decorators inside of a class like this. Can anyone comment on any of these three things? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
