I have a class that does MCMC sampling (Python 2.5) that uses decorators -- one in particular called _add_to_post that appends the output of the decorated method to a class attribute. However, when I subclass this base class, the decorator no longer works:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/chris/Projects/CMR/closed.py", line 132, in <module> class M0(MetropolisHastings): File "/Users/chris/Projects/CMR/closed.py", line 173, in M0 @_add_to_post NameError: name '_add_to_post' is not defined yet, when I look at the dict of the subclass (here called M0), I see the decorator method: In [5]: dir(M0) Out[5]: ['__call__', '__doc__', '__init__', '__module__', '_add_to_post', ... I dont see what the problem is here -- perhaps someone could shed some light. I thought it might be the underscore preceding the name, but I tried getting rid of it and that did not help.
