It's important that I can read the contents of the dict without flagging it as modified, but I want it to set the flag the moment I add a new element or alter an existing one (the values in the dict are mutable), this is what makes it difficult. Because the values are mutable I don't think you can tell the difference between a read and a write without making some sort of wrapper around them.
Still, I'd love to hear how you guys would do it. Thanks, -Sandra -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
