Hi!
I have a Python class which inherits from ParentWithGens, and I want
to overload the method __temporarily_change_names that is inherited
from CategoryObject. But how can this be done?
First I tried the "obvious" way, along these lines:
sage: from sage.structure.parent_gens import ParentWithGens
sage: class C (ParentWithGens):
....: def __temporarily_change_names(self,names,latexnames):
....: print 'boo'
....:
sage: P = C('a')
sage: P.__temporarily_change_names(1,1)
(None, None)
So, apparently the method inherited from CategoryObject is still in
use, the direct attempt to overload did fail.
Then, I remembered Python's name mangling and tried to rename the
method into _CategoryObject__temporarily_change_names, but it did not
work either.
Is there some way to get this thing overloaded?
Cheers,
Simon
