Hmm, I tried that code but all i got was a nameError. 

    >>> inspect.getsource(FooClass)
    
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
        inspect.getsource(FooClass)
    NameError: name 'inspect' is not defined

    >>> inspect.getsourcefile(FooClass)

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module>
        inspect.getsourcefile(FooClass)
    NameError: name 'inspect' is not defined

You must be using the Python version that has batteries _and_
imports included.
