The output is still not what I want. Now runtime error free, however the output is not what I desire.
def setname(cls):
'''this is the proposed generator to call SetName on the object'''
try:
cls.SetName(cls.__name__)
except Exception as e:
print e
finally:
return cls
class Trial(object):
'''class to demonstrate with'''
def __init__(self):
object.__init__(self)
self.name = None
@classmethod
def SetName(cls, name):
cls.name = name
@setname
class Test(Trial):
'''i want SetName to be called by using setname as a decorator'''
def __init__(self):
Trial.__init__(self)
if __name__ == '__main__':
test = Test()
print 'instance'
print '', test.name #should be Test
print 'class'
print '', Test.name
The output is: python decors2.py
instance
None
class
Test
I want:
instance
Test
class
Test
Is this possible in this manner?
