def __getstate__(self): return self.lst def __setstate__(self, L): self.lst = L and copy an instance x of X with copy.copy(x) [[after import copy, of course]]. This will also support pickling &c. getstate/setstate are generally the best approach. An equally good alternative here, omit setstate and just: def __getstate__(self): return dict(lst=self.lst) Alex -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
