Hi, sorry if this is a faq. I've searched and got no result. I'm willing to pass a custom object to re.search method, but I'm getting the error:
TypeError: expected string or buffer I don't want to make my object to inherit from basestring (nor I know how to do it...). Then I was left with 'buffer'. I tried to make my object inherit from types.BufferType and got the error: TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases type 'buffer' is not an acceptable base type If I call the function buffer passing an instance of my object I get: TypeError: buffer object expected Is it possible to make what I want (to pass a custom object to re.search)? regards, Bruno -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
