Type AmbiguousMember

object --+
         |
        AmbiguousMember

An implementation artifact to manage ambiguous members.

Instances of this class are not supposed to be constructed directly, but rather by the ambiguous function.

Method Details

namespace_dec(self, namespace)

A decorator for assigning a namespace to a function.

Both following codes are equivalent:

   # version with decorator
   @ambiguous_member.namespace_dec (A_Class)
   def f(x,y,z):
       pass

   # equivalent version without the decorator
   def f(x,y,z):
       pass
   ambiguous_member.set_namespace (A_Class, f)

: See Also: set_namespace

set_namespace(self, namespace, context=1)

Assign a given namespace (i.e. class from which the ambiguous member should take its definition) for the given context.

The context can be a callable, a property (in which case all methods of the property will taken into account), a class (in which case all members of the class will be taken into account), a module or an integer value.

If an integer value n, the namespace is assigned to the n next lines of code. If not given, the context defaults to value 1 (i.e. the next line of code).

IMPORTANT: the context must not be in the <stdin> file, because line number are nor reliable there. Any attempt to set a namespace to such a context will issue a warning and have no other effect.

Parameters:: namespace - a class defining the member; context - a callable, property, class, module or int
