@fredley uhhh... I guess you could write that as self.__dict__.update(kwargs)

but it still looks wrong

>>> class T():
...   def __init__(self, **kw):
...     self.__dict__.update(kw)
>>> x = T(this = "is", a = "test")
>>> x.this
'is'
>>> x.a
'test'

doesn't work if your class uses __slots__

...uhhhh.

>>> class T():
...   __slots__ = ('x', 'y')
...   def __init__(self, x, y):
...     self.x = x
...     self.y = y
...
>>> x = T(1, 2)
>>> x.__dict___
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: T instance has no attribute '__dict___'
>>> x.z = 2
>>> x.__dict__
{'y': 2, 'x': 1, 'z': 2}

I can't say I expected this

Hi bridge

I expected setting x.z to fail but oh well.

I guess you have to bring your own __setattr__ to make it happen.

> Without a __dict__ variable, instances cannot be assigned new variables not listed in the __slots__ definition. Attempts to assign to an unlisted variable name raises AttributeError. If dynamic assignment of new variables is desired, then add '__dict__' to the sequence of strings in the __slots__ declaration.

@fredley I'm confused as to what you're doing.

The finale of the winter comic is a bad joke? Heh, silly Valve.

And no apparent ARG clues, hmm

@RonanForman I'm using kwargs to set arbitrary stuff within a class.

It works, that's not the issue, it just feels... antipatterny

@fredley I was doing that last month, I stopped.

@RonanForman Why?

6:42 PM

It was weird.

Also I started adding methods and they got intercepted by the getattr.

eh?

I was overriding __getattr__ so that if I did foo.bar it'd look up bar in the xml my class was holding.

@RonanForman ah

But then if you had a method called bar you can't call it, or something I don't remember.
