selecting a class in execution time

[Raseliarison nirinA]

Maybe you want something like this:

>>> class TheClass:
             def Name(self):
                  print 'a name from a class'

 
>>> TheClass
<class __main__.TheClass at 0x00AD7270>
>>> object = TheClass()
>>> object
<__main__.TheClass instance at 0x00AE35F8>
>>> object.Name
<bound method TheClass.Name of <__main__.TheClass instance at 0x00AE35F8>>
>>> object.Name()
a name from a class


If this is saved as 'MyPackage.py', you can select TheClass with:


>>> from MyPackage import TheClass


or create the object like


>>> import MyPackage
>>> object = MyPackage.TheClass()
>>> object
<MyPackage.TheClass instance at 0x00AF7378>
>>> object.Name
<bound method TheClass.Name of <MyPackage.TheClass instance at 0x00AF7378>>
>>> object.Name()
a name from a class
