Mea culpa: Here super is _not_ a good idea, and I had tried that and recoded, but cut and pasted the wrong code. I just noticed that I had done so this morning. class Initialized(ClassBase): @classmethod def _init_class(class_): class_.a, class_.b = 1, 2 ClassBase._init_class() print Initialized.a, Initialized.b Much better. There is probably a way to get to the MRO, but for now, this should do. --Scott David Daniels scott.dani...@acm.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
