You're misunderstanding descriptors. Descriptors only work when placed in a class. On 5/2/07, Joel Bender <jjb5@cornell.edu> wrote:

I was expecting this to work:

class myprop(property): def __get__(self, obj, cls): print "get", obj, cls def __set__(self, obj, value): print "set", obj, value

def f(x): print 'f' f.p

f.p = myprop()

So it comes out like this:

>>> f(2) f get <function f at 0x61270> None

Is this a bug? Or was it not in the scope of what properties would be used for? Is this PEP material?
