Hi, Sorry if the subject line of post is wrong, but I think that is what this is called. I want to create objects with
class Coconuts(object): def __init__(self, a, b, *args, **kwargs): self.a = a self.b = b def spam( l ) return Coconuts( l.a, l.b, l.attributes ) l in a parse line of a file which is a tuple wrapped with attrcol......with attributes a, b and attributes (which is a list of strings in the format key=value ie... [ "id=bar", "test=1234", "doh=qwerty" ] ). I want to add attributes to Coconuts so that I can do print c.id, c.test, c.doh HOwever I m not sure how to do this: how can i assign args, kwargs within the constructor of coconuts and how can I deconstruct the list to form the correct syntax to be able to be used for args, kwargs. HOpe this makes sense, Thanks in advance, Nathan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
