No, because accessing the property and the instance variable are *syntactically identical* (it's the raison detre of properties) so there's no way for Python to know which one you mean when. Typically, people name the variable used internally by the property as an underscore followed by the property name (e.g. self._i). > Class X: > ... > self.i = 10 # marker > ... > property(fget = get_i, fset = set_i) Cheers, Chris -- Follow the path of the Iguana... http://rebertia.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
