indeed it does, so basically everything works except my original
solution:
def myfunction(a,b):
return a+b
def _myfunction(a,b):
return myfunction(a,b)
myfunction = _myfunction
oh well, it was enough to puzzle my tiny brain

thx a lot for the information on decorators
this will be very usefull... (sounds like a little step towards aspect
orientated programming,:) )
Because I use libraries which rely on boost-python I can not jump into
python 2.4
but I understand the main idea and can also use it in python 2.3

Hello
I indeed also rely on your idea.
My problem however is: is has to be non-intrusively in both ways.
In your example, it would indeed not break the old code which relies on
myfunction
but my problems is: I also do not want to change the code of the
'before' myfunction.
so my problem in fact
Decorators are your friends. You can wrap a function
and give it additional functionality. For instance just
yesterday I needed to keep track of how many times
a function is called. This can be done with this
decorator:
.def with_counter(f):
.def wrappedf(*args, **kw):
.wrappedf.counte
Whenever I want to add functionality to a function while still allowing
it to word as it was before my edit would be to include a few optional
variables passed to the string. something to this effect would look

How can I achieve this?
Thus I start with an old function named fA.
I would like to add extra functionality to fA.
