In the new (2.4) version of the Tutorial, that statement has been removed. What you're using has been called "old-style" classes for quite a while now (since 2.0?). Any new Python code should really be using the "new-style" classes (inherit from "object" and use things like "super". But FWIW, it appears to still work with Python 2.4: #---------- <snip FILE="Foo.py"> ----------------- class Foo: def foo(self): print "foo" class Bar(Foo): def foo(self): print "bar" Foo.foo(self) #----------- </snip> ------------ # Now in the Python interpreter: >>> from Foo import * >>> f = Foo() >>> f.foo() foo >>> b = Bar() >>> b.foo() bar foo So nothing jumps out to me that you did obviously wrong, sorry. But in general my advice would be to switch to using "new-style" classes. HTH -- Steve Juranich Tucson, AZ USA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
