Skulpt & Metaclass

[Amirouche B.]

Héllo again,

What is the state of metaclass support in Skulpt ?

type object doesn't seem to be available making the metaclass thing undoable. Did I miss something or Skulpt is modeled after Python old style class system [1] ?

I'm looking for a solution to do web development in Python (or pseudo-python...). So far I wasn't happy with available solutions and wanted to experiment with the topic myself [2] but now I need solid reason to fork or join forces...


Thanks in advance.

There is a type object, but metaclasses aren't fully supported. test/run/t240.py to test/run/t243.py were I think the most complicated class/inheritance/etc. tests.

For the most part Skulpt was intended to follow the simplified (normalized) object model Py3, even though the syntax is 2.

Scott,

Did you ever give much thought to implementing super?  If so I'd love to hear any ideas you had, as I'd like to implement.

I haven't thought about it too much, no. I don't know all the rules for super, but I assume it's a lot like MRO? So it might be a matter of reusing the code that does the method search to find the proper base for the super invocation?
