Python only looks up __xxx__ methods in new-style classes on the class itself, not on the instances. So this works: 8<---------------------------------------------------------------- class Cow(object): pass def attrgetter(self, a): print "CAUGHT: Attempting to get attribute", a bessie = Cow() Cow.__getattr__ = attrgetter print bessie.milk 8<----------------------------------------------------------------
a minor modification might be useful: bessie = Cow() bessie.__class__.__getattr__ = attrgetter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
