The decorator does receive the correct function. The problem is that
at this point __init__ is still a plain function, not a method, i.e.
the sequence is:
function -> decorated function -> method
There are several workarounds if you really want to differentiate
between functions and methods, none of them perfect:
- Apply the decorator after the class has been built, i.e. after the
functions have been wrapped in (unbound) methods:
A.__init__ = w(A.__init__)
- (Risky Hack): Guess whether a function is intended to be wrapped in
a method by checking whether its first argument is named "self".
Obviously this is not foolproof and it doesn't work for static/class
methods.
- Have two different decorators, one intended for plain functions and
one for functions-to-be-methods (e.g. @deco, @decomethod).
