Well, it doesn't distinguish between an attribute which doesn't exist and an attribute which has any false value. This makes it unsuitable as a hasattr() replacement IMHO.
But you're asking if the object posesses an attribute, not any question about the value of the object. I think returning false if the value is false is potentially dangerous - I may want to retrieve a false value. -- Phillip Hutchings http://www.sitharus.com/ sitharus@gmail.com / sitharus@sitharus.com
