Sorry for top posting, didn't know about that) I'm quote new to posting to
mailing lists.
Well, actually the code you showed doesn't work)
>>> class A(object):
.. def __init__(self):
.. self.d = {}
.. def __getattr__(self, key):
.. try:
.. return self.d[key]
.. except KeyError:
.. raise AttributeError
>>> from copy import deepcopy
>>> a = A()
>>> deepcopy(a)
Exception RuntimeError: 'maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a
Python object' in <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> ignored
Exception RuntimeError: 'maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a
Python object' in <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> ignored
0: <__main__.A object at 0xda0250>
