Class attributes / methods lost?

[Gabor Urban]

Hi guys,

I am building a nested data structure with the following compontens:

<>

class Item:
    def __init__(self, pId, pChange, pComment):
        self.ID = pId
        self.Delta = pChange
        self.Comment = pComment

    def PrintItem(self):
        str = '%s,%s,%s'%(self.ID,self.Delta,self.comment)
        return str

class Package:
    def __init__(self, pSerial, pDate, pOwner, pSchema):
        self.serial = pSerial
        self.date = pDate
        self.owner = pOwner
        self.schema = pSchema
        self.items = []

    def insertItem(self, pItem):
        self.items.append(pItem)

    def printPackage(self):
        lines = []
        str = '%s,%s,%s,%s'%(self.serial,self.date,self.owner,self.schema)
        number = self.items.length
        for idx in xrange(number):
            line = ''
            istr = self.items[idx].PrintItem()
            line = str + ',' + istr
            lines.append(line)
        return lines

<>

The above structure is processed with next code:

<>

size = len(packages)
package = None
for index in xrange(size):
    logger.info('PrettyPrinting package id=%d',index)
    oplines = []
    oplines = packages[index].printPackage()
    for i in xrange(oplines.length):
        data.append(oplines[i])
<>

I've got the next error message:
' Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "XmlHistory_orig.py", line 203, in ?
    oplines = packages[index].printPackage()
TypeError: unbound method printPackage() must be called with Package
instance as first argument (got nothing instead) '

I did give a try to access the fields directly

<>
packages = []
data = []

size = len(packages)
for index in xrange(size):
    str = '%s,%s,%s,%s'%(packages[index].serial,packages[index].date,packages[index].owner,packages[index].schema)
    itemnum = len(packages[index].items)
    oplines = []
    for itemIndx in xrange(itemnum):
        element =
'%s,%s,%s'%(packages[index].items[itemIdx].ID,packages[index].items[itemIdx].Delta,packages[index].items[itemIdx].comment)
        oplines.append(str + ','+elemt)

<>

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "XmlHistory.py", line 204, in ?
    str = '%s,%s,%s,%s'%(packages[index].serial,packages[index].date,packages[index].owner,packages[index].schema)
AttributeError: class Package has no attribute 'serial'

The strange in this issue for me, that I do not see why are the class
methods and fields lost.

Any idea is wellcome.
