__eq__ method can resolve this problem only for class object. what can i do in the following case?
a = somefuction(...) #a is stringType a == "1234"? my simple requirement is: in some validation statments, such as, failUnless(a == "1234") if the result is true, it's OK. otherwise, it prints a automatically. also, i know we can implement failUnless(...) to satisfy this, failUnless(a == b, a, b) but i think, if we can override "==" for any type, it will make things conveniently... regards! >From: Casey Hawthorne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: python-list@python.org >Subject: Re: May i customize basic operator (such as 1==3)? >Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2006 04:06:34 GMT > >I believe you are asking for a side effect from the "==" operator. > >Add print statements to the __eq__ method. > >"kanchy kang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >Hi,all > >as we know, we can override the operator of one object(for example >__eq__). > >my question is, how to override the basic operator? > >for example, > > > >for any object comparison operator(including litterals), > >for example, > >a = "123" > >b = "321" > > > >the boolean equation a == b, > >i need override "==" operator like this: > >first display a and b > > > >then return real boolean result (a == b). > > > >thanks! > > > > > >----------------------------------------------- > >Best regards, > >kangzz > > > >mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >Tel : 021-65407754 > >MP: 13916928084 > > > >_________________________________________________________________ > >Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
