[Python-ideas] Functions and Unbound methods

[robert2682]

Hi,

I'm new; greetings all!

I'm not sure if this is a bug or feature, but it confused me so I thought
I'd raise the issue.


class a:
   def b (self):
     pass

   foo = ('Hello', b)

class c(a):
   def d(self):
     t = type (self. __class__. foo [1])
     print t
     t = type (self. __class__. b)
     print t

e = c ()
e. d()

prints <type 'function'> for the first print,
and it seems to me it should be an instancemethod


I'm trying to something like this

class EditPage:

   additonal_buttons = ()
   def __init__ (self):
     buts = []
     for x in addional_butons:
       if isinstance (x [1], types. UnboundMethodType):     # fails 
because type (x [1]) is function, not UnboundMethod
         buts. append ((x [0], types. MethodType (x [1], self)))
       else:
         buts. append (x)

class TreePage(EditPage):
   def EditAsText (self):
      pass

   additional_buttons = (('EditAsText', EditAsText),)


Thanks
