I apologize for asking maybe a very trivial question. I have a new class object A with slots. One of the slots is, for example, object spam. Object spam, in turn, also has slots and one of them is attribute eggs. I need to assign a new value to eggs. In other words, I need to perform the following:
A.spam.eggs=newValue The problem is that I have only a string s='spam.eggs' with which to work, so I cannot write an expression written above. I tried to use setattr: setattr(A, s, newValue) but this does not work. It says that object A does not have attribute spam.eggs How would you do it? TIA. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
