This looks excellent bearophile, but I'm having trouble understanding
some things. Perhaps you can help wipe clean my ignorance. Firstly, I
thought __classes__ was a read-only attribute? Secondly, what is a
"dictproxy object" and why won't the following code work:
class Cat:
def meow(self):
print "meow"
def MixIn(object, *classes):
temp = type('ClassPie', (object.__class__,) + classes, {})
temp.__dict__.update([object.__dict__])
NewClass = MixIn(Cat(), C, D)
test = NewClass()
__dict__, to my understanding, is suppose to be a dictionary, but
Python keeps telling me it's a 'dictproxy' object and that it has no
attribute 'update'. Why is this?
Thanks.
