If you want FooSon to create an instance of Foo, try:
You wrote: a = Foo().getid() Which indeed creates a *new* Foo-instance. So it's of no use to the OP. Of course Foo.<method>(self) calls that method without creating a new instance, which is the behavior one uses when invoking the constructor of Foo inside FooSon.__init__. But that doesn't make your example any better. Diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
