The problem I have with properties is my typing. I'll end up assigning
to an attribute, but get the spelling slightly wrong (capitalized, or
missing an underscore -- non-obvious things when bug-hunting), so now I
have an extra attribute which of course has zero effect on what I'm
trying to do and I start getting wierd results like viewing deleted
records when I *know* I set useDeleted = False... 30 minutes later I
notice it was /supposed/ to be use_deleted. *sigh*
So -- to keep myself out of trouble -- I have started coding such things
as, for example:
result = table.use_deleted() # returns True or False
table.use_deleted(False) # skip deleted records
instead of
result = table.use_deleted
table.use_deleted = False
My question: is this [ severely | mildly | not at all ] un-pythonic?
Definitly and totally unpythonic. The first solution to your problem is
to stick to standard naming conventions. If this is not enough, Chris
pointed you to really useful tools. Also, you can override __setattr__
to catch such errors - at least during the coding/debug phase.
