Thanks for the help. The __dict__.values() is something I have not previously looked into but it does not work as desired because python wants an instance of the class. How can I cast an object if I don't know what type of object it is (example.ticker, in this debug)? >>> modname = sensorsList[0].__name__ >>> m = __import__(modname) >>> for anobj in m.__dict__.values(): if hasattr(anobj, 'do_foobar'): anobj.do_foobar() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#76>", line 3, in ? anobj.do_foobar() TypeError: unbound method do_foobar() must be called with ticker instance as first argument (got nothing instead) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
