IIRC, the self.__dict__.update(locals()) trick confuses psyco.
But you can make a decorator to achieve the same result. There's not
really a convincing case for extending python syntax.
def attribute_decorator(f):
import inspect
argnames = inspect.getargspec(f)[0]
def decorator(*args, **keywords):
bound_instance = args[0]
for name, value in zip(argnames[1:], args[1:]):
setattr(bound_instance, name, value)
return f(*args, **keywords)
return decorator
#--------- example use:
class foo(object):
@attribute_decorator
def __init__(self, thing):
print "init: self.thing is", repr(self.thing)
f = foo('hello world')
