Hi!
This somewhat puzzles me:
Python 2.4 (#1, Feb 3 2005, 16:47:05)
[GCC 3.3.4 (pre 3.3.5 20040809)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
.>>> class test(object):
... def __init__(self):
... self.__call__ = self.__call1
... def __call1(self):
... print 1
... def __call__(self):
... print 2
...
.>>> t = test()
.>>> t()
2
If I take out the __call__ method completely and only set it in
__init__, I get a TypeError saying that test is not callable.
Note that it works just fine if you don't use a new-style class:
>>> class Test:
... def __init__(self):
... self.__call__ = self.foobar
... def foobar(self, *args, **kwargs):
... print "Called with:", args, kwargs
...
>>> t = Test()
>>> t()
Called with: () {}
>>> t(3, 4)
Called with: (3, 4) {}
>>> t(42, x=0)
Called with: (42,) {'x': 0}
