Re: [Zope-dev] How to override __getattr__ and not break acquisition

OK, a bit of python and Zope experimenting and I have got a little further with this, and my understanding as to when __getattr__ is actually called!

This gets closer to working, by calling the __getattr__ from the Implicit base class, but could be barking up the wrong tree :

def __getattr__(self,attr): if name = 'foo': return self.foo()

return Implicit.__class__.__getattr__(self,attr)

If you really want to do just that, take a look at ComputedAttribute, just in case you don't know. foo = ComputedAttribute(_foo) def _foo(self,..): <do something> return something cheers, oliver
