What about __getlocalattribute__ or __getattributenorecurse__? Long, but this isn't going to be used often.
Putting "type" or "class" in the name would be misleading. It's an instance method (that is most useful when implemented on a metaclass). (Apologies for the top post.)

Surely that's the obvious name to derive from _PyType_Lookup :-) -- Steven _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/steve.dower%40microsoft.com
