sending a class as an argument

[manstey]

Hi,

Our class has its attributes set as classes, as in

MyClass.Phone.Value='34562346'
MyClass.Phone.Private=True

Inside the MyClass definition we have a function like this:

def MyFunc(self,clsProperty):
   if clsProperty.Private:
        print 'Private property'
   else:
        print ClsProperty.Value

In our code, we then call
>>> MyClass.MyFunc(MyClass.Phone)

We want to be able in our code instead simply to call:
>>> MyClass.MyFunc(Phone) or MyClass.MyFunc('Phone')

But we can't get it to work. If we rewrite the function as follows:

def MyFunc(self,attr):
   if self.attr.Private:
      print 'Private'
   else:
      print self.attr.Value

we get an error.

Is there a better way to do this? Thanks
