Hello everybody!
I'm stuck in the effort to access some data fields in a LibreOffice
Base form from a Python macro.
I did only find a way to access the current document, but that's
all. Armed with that, and hoping to find some field names, I wrote a
small routine to inspect the types of all elements in that document,
and I stumbled in a strange behaviour in the exec() function: it seems
that exec() only works if called from the interactive interpreter,
while it doesn't if called inside a program.
Why?
(by the way, if somebody knows how to read currently displayed data
from fields in a LibreOffice Base form and put it in some other field
on the same form, using a Python macro, I would be very happy...)

Here's my code: (Python 3.5.3 on Linux)
import inspect, collections
def esplora(xModel):
i = 0
questi = []
for x in dir(xModel):
qqq = "Non Modif"
what = "Nothing"
try:
what = "Attr?"
exec("qqq = inspect.getmembers(xModel.%s)" % x)
what = "Attr!!!"
if qqq == "Non Modif":
try:
what = "Type?"
exec("qqq = type(xModel.%s)" % x)
what = "Type!!!"
except:
what = "Except2"
except:
what = "Except1"
questi.append(str((x, qqq, what)))
i += 1
questi.append(("Totale elementi: %s" % i, ))
print("\n".join(questi))
Example data:
>>> class prova(object):
... def __init__(self):
... self.abc = "ABC"
... self.num = 123
... self.tup = ("abc", 321)
...
>>> lui = prova()
Applied the function to the sample data: incorrect behaviour
>>> esplora(lui)

Totale elementi: 28
>>> type(lui.tup)
<class 'tuple'>
>>> dir(lui)

>>>
Same thing called directly: correct behaviour
>>> for x in dir(lui):
... exec("y = type(lui.%s)" % x)
... print((x, y))
