asyncore from Python's standard library does that. It's not a great idea at all. For many reasons, one being the principle of least astonishment. Much rather, copy the attributes. But then you start going the winding path down to "I'm merging this instance into myself", and you end up with messy code. Anyway, the file-like methods are a finite set. Why not try to be complete? (This issue has bitten me by the way, and I did f.readline = f._file.readline.) - Ludvig --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
