I was thinking that in Python2.4, all class definitions inherited from new-style classes. There may be a bug here. I can make your code work as expected by changing the class definition to:
class Task(object): with that change, the assignment raises an attribute error. You could also accomplish the same thing by eliminating the setNothing method and defining your property as: command=property(getCommand) or for a really simple case like this, you could even leave off the getCommand function and define the property as: command=property(lambda self: self._command) (although I am sure personal tastes vary as to style here). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
