The problem that I am facing is that when the superclass is not
'object', the __init__ method may well need arguments. I do not know how
to determine if the superclass is 'object'. For what it is worth, any
attempt to use this with different arguments should return the initial
singleton and ignore further attempts to create a second instance.
1 "object"
don't understand. Perhaps give us a broader description of the problem?
Remember also ABCs (Abstract Base Classes).
2 arguments
yes, must accommodate arguments in __new__() if some/same are needed in
__init__() However, when using the default "object", the super() does
not need, use, or want, any arguments to be passed.
3 singleton
don't think that is happening!
PS please reply to the list - there may be others who can learn from, or
