tinypy - reflection supported? Hard to implement?

[Davide Della Casa]

Hi,

it's fantastic that tinypy manages to implement a dynamic object-oriented language to such an extent so succinctly! Fantastic work!

On the matter of dynamism - is reflection supported? I see there is support for eval (or, at least, there is a tp_eval).

I'm now wondering if one can pull other tricks such as these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_%28computer_programming%29#Python and http://stackoverflow.com/a/6098736 and http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-pyint/

I'm anticipating these would need some changes to tinypy - does anyone have an idea of whether this would be feasible at all and whether this would be a "big" task for any reason?

(I'm hoping the answer would be "no reflection is not supported because it's not needed that often, but it can be done easily!")

Cheers,

Davide Della Casa
