My initial proposal
(http://cci.lbl.gov/~rwgk/python/adopt_init_args_2005_07_02.html) didn't
exactly get a warm welcome...
And Now for Something Completely Different:
class autoinit(object):
def __init__(self, *args, **keyword_args):
self.__dict__.update(
zip(self.__autoinit__.im_func.func_code.co_varnames[1:], args))
self.__dict__.update(keyword_args)
self.__autoinit__(*args, **keyword_args)
class grouping(autoinit):
def __autoinit__(self, x, y, z):
print self.x, self.y, self.z
group = grouping(1,2,z=3)
group = grouping(z=1,x=2,y=3)
try: grouping(1)
except TypeError, e: print e
try: grouping(1,2,3,a=0)
except TypeError, e: print e
Almost like my original favorite solution, only better, and it doesn't require
a syntax change.
Under a hypothetical new proposal __autoinit__ would become a standard feature
of object.
Any takers?
Cheers,
Ralf
