Normally this is done when you instantiate the class:
fp = open('dummyFile.txt')
curHandler=LogHander(fp)
class LogHandler(ContentHandler):
def __init__(self, fp=None):
self.fp=fp
def endElement(self, name:
doSomething(self, "GroupResultList", self.text, self.fp)
but you could set it later if you like:
fp = open('dummyFile.txt')
curHandler=LogHander()
curHandler.fp=fp
