Forgive me if I mangle any terminology here, but please correct me if
I do...
I have an object which acts exactly like a string as long as I stay in
Python land. However, I am using the object in Softimage|XSI a 3D
application on Windows. It was created while (briefly) owned by
Microsoft, so knowledge of COM with excel or anything else should be
applicable I should think. I should also say I am a COM novice and
still learning Python (there are few that aren't learning though I
suppose).
Here is an example:
class Name(object):
def __init__(self, s): self.__data = s
def __repr__(self): return repr(self.__data)
def __cmp__(self, string): return cmp(self.__data, string)
def __contains__(self, char): return char in self.__data
__data = "Test"
__doc = "Test"
def __Set(self, value):
self.__data = value
def __Get(self):
return self.__data
data = property(fget = __Get,
fset = __Set,
fdel = None,
doc = "string-like example")
It also uses some new-style class Property
