Something like the getattr() trick.

[Ayaz Ahmed Khan]

I'm working with the following class heirarchy (I've snipped out the code
from the classes):

class Vuln:
        def __init__(self, url):
                pass
        
        def _parse(self):
                pass

        def get_link(self):
                pass

class VulnInfo(Vuln):
        pass

class VulnDiscuss(Vuln):
        pass

def main(url):
        vuln_class = ['Info', 'Discuss']
        vuln = Vuln(url)
        vuln._parse()
        for link in vuln.get_link():
                i = VulnInfo(link)
                i._parse()
                d = VulnDiscuss(link)
                d._parse()
        

Is there a way to get references to VulnInfo and VulnDiscuss objects using
something like the getattr trick? For example, something like:

        for _class in vuln_class:
                class_obj = getattr('Vuln%s' % (_class,) ..)
                a = class_obj(link)
                a._parse()

getattr() takes an object as its first argument. I can't seem to figure
out how to make it work here.

A witty saying proves nothing, but saying something pointless gets
people's attention.
