This may not be what you're looking for but here's the solution I ended up with
after some help from the list. It's designed for getting the name of an
instance method, but in case it applies to your particular situation:
#!/usr/bin/python
import functools
class TestClass:
def __init__(self):
pass
def __getattr__(self, name):
try:
return getattr(self.__class__, name)
except AttributeError:
return functools.partial(self.foo, name)
def foo(self, name, **args):
print "This is", name
test = TestClass()
test.someMethod()
test.anotherMethod()
Otherwise the inspect module may be the way to go, as Stephen already pointed
out (though I must admit it seems a very inelegant route, especially compared
to Python's usually clean and clear style).
