Or if you do need to override it for some reason, you need to accept the extra args and pass them on:class nThread(threading.Thread): def __init__(self, *args, **kwds): threading.Thread.__init__(self, *args, **kwds) # your other stuff here
Since Thread is a new style class, this should read: class NThread(threading.thread): def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(NThread, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs) Christian -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
