I have some logging utilities so that when I write library code, I just use the following.
from logutil import Logger log = Logger(__name__) And from then on I just use log, to do the logging of that module. But now I would like to write a decorator trace, so that a decorated function would log, its arguments and result. Something like: def trace(func): def wrapper(*args): log(DEBUG, "=> %s%s" % (func.__name__, args)) result = func(*args) log(DEBUG, "%s => %s" (func.__name__, result)) return wrapper The problem is that with this decorater, the log function used, will be the log function defined where the decorator is written and I would prefer it to use the log function where it is used, so that it uses the same log function as the function it decorates. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
