Hi all!
I am pretty new to Python, so please excuse me if I am missing
something. Lately, I've been playing with decorators and I am a bit
confused about some behavior. Here is the code that puzzles me:
in python shell:
def function():
pass
class A(object):
def method(self):
pass
from types import MethodType
from types import FunctionType
if type(function) is FunctionType:
print "this is what I expect"
if type(A.method) is MethodType:
print "this is what I expect"
so far so good... everything seems logical.
But if a decorator is declared things are becoming different:
def deco(function):
if type(function) is MethodType:
print "MethodType"
elif type(function) is FunctionType:
print "FunctionType"
@deco
def function2():
pass
# ==> this prints out FunctionType (oke)
class A(object):
@deco
def method(self):
pass
# ==> this prints out FunctionType (???)
Can somebody shed some light on why I am seeing this?
(Using Python 2.5.1 on Win XP).
TIA,
./alex
