[Python-Dev] Definining properties - a use case for class decorators?

[Michele Simionato]

As other explained, the syntax would not work for functions (and it is
not intended to).
A possible use case I had in mind is to define inlined modules to be
used as bunches
of attributes. For instance, I could define a module as

module m():
    a = 1
    b = 2

where 'module' would be the following function:

def module(name, args, dic):
    mod = types.ModuleType(name, dic.get('__doc__'))
    for k in dic: setattr(mod, k, dic[k])
    return mod
