Hello,
I'm having problems retrieving data I think I've put into my program. I have
a class and a function. I'm reading in from a personally made text file of
the data needed for the class. The FieldsDictionary needs to be accesable
outside the function, but my problem is this:
the print FieldsDictionary[key].Fieldname (which I should have just created
because of the line above), returns:
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'Fieldname'
am I just accessing it wrongly?
I was under the impression that Fields Dictionary should contain a key
referencing to a list of instances of the class. i.e.
FieldsDictionary{key:[instance1, instance2, instance 3]}
Is this not what I've programmed?
class FieldClass(object):
def
__init__(self,Fieldname="",Fieldlength=0,Type=["A","S","N"],Location=["D","C","L","H","TBA"]):
self.Fieldname=Fieldname
self.Fieldlength=Fieldlength
self.Type=Type
self.Location=Location
def
EnterDictionary(FieldsDictionary,key,myfile,FIELD_QUANTITY_OFFSET,LINE_START,LINE_END):
data=myfile.readline().strip()
for i in range(int(data[FIELD_QUANTITY_OFFSET:])):
args =myfile.readline().strip()[LINE_START:LINE_END].split(",")
print args
FieldsDictionary.setdefault(key, []).append(FieldClass(*args))
print FieldsDictionary[key].Fieldname
