I may be attempting something improper here, but maybe I'm just going about it the wrong way. I'm subclassing http.server.CGIHTTPRequestHandler, and I'm using a decorator to add functionality to several overridden methods.
def do_decorate(func): . def wrapper(self): . if appropriate(): . return func() . complain_about_error() . return wrapper class myHandler(CGIHTTPRequestHandler): . @do_decorate . def do_GET(self): . return super().do_GET() . # also override do_HEAD and do_POST My first thought was that I could just replace that whole method definition with one line: class myHandler(CGIHTTPRequestHandler): . do_GET = do_decorate(super().do_GET) That generates the following error: SystemError: super(): __class__ cell not found So I guess that when super() is called in the context of a class def rather than that of a method def, it doesn't have the information it needs. Now I'll probably just say: do_GET = do_decorate(CGIHTTPRequestHandler.do_GET) but I wonder if there is a "correct" way to do this instead?
