See if this does what you want:
(Note that vermeta.py preliminarily writes out the three version_?.py files, so
you can just go to a temp directory and run python24 vermeta.py)
It makes the version files look a little more cluttered with the
open(..).write('''\ ... ''') wrapping. E.g., 2 & 3 are just
----< version_2.py >-----------
from version_1 import Namespace as PreviousNamespace
class Namespace(PreviousNamespace):
__metaclass__ = vars(PreviousNamespace)['__metaclass__']
class A:
def foo(self): return "version_2.foo()"
-------------------------------
and
----< version_3.py >-----------
from version_2 import Namespace as PreviousNamespace
class Namespace(PreviousNamespace):
__metaclass__ = vars(PreviousNamespace)['__metaclass__']
class B:
def bar(self): return "version_3.bar()"
-------------------------------
And you only have to change one digit in the 3-line boilerplate
and your class definitions don't have to specify inheritance,
but it could test for type classobj (classic class) and only
redefine if so ;-)
There are some limitations I think (;-) but the idea is you just have to
specify three lines of boilerplate for a new version, and then just
the classes and methods you are interested in overriding in the new
version, and you don't have to specify the class inheritance in the new
versions,
as the lazystyle metaclass function takes care of that. I hope ;-)
Version_1 has to be hand made, but after that, see what you think.
