[issue15885] @staticmethod __getattr__ doesn't work

[Eric Snow]

Eric Snow added the comment:

In Python 2 the code example generates an old-style class.  When I tried it with a new style class, it worked fine:

class Wrapper(object):
        @staticmethod
        def __getattr__(item):
                return repr(item) # dummy

a = Wrapper()
print(a.foo)
# 'foo'

Chalk this up to another reason to move to Python 3.  <wink>
