I, like everybody else it seems, am interested to know why/when (multiple) inheritance doesn't work. Meanwhile # this is a hack import inspect import textwrap class Generated: def generated(self): print "generated" def class_body(Class): return textwrap.dedent(inspect.getsource(Class).split("\n", 1)[1]) class Handmade: exec class_body(Generated) def handmade(self): print "handmade" if __name__ == "__main__": print dir(Handmade) Handmade().generated() Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
