FWIW, it's probably one of the most useless construct in Python IMHO. classmethod are really much more useful to me. > but I find there isn't a built-in func to build a > static field ( something like staticfield() ) Please define "static field", I just don't understand what it could be. Now if what you want is a class attribute (ie: an attribute that is shared by all instances of a class), just declare it at the class level: class MyClass(object): shared_attrib = 42 # can be accessed via the class # or via an instance MyClass.shared_attrib m = MyClass() m.shared_attrib # but you don't want to rebind it via an instance m.shared_attrib = 33 m.shared_attrib MyClass.shared_attrib # note that the problem is only with rebinding - mutating is ok class MyOtherClass(object): shared_attrib = [42] mo = MyOtherClass() mo.shared_attrib mo.shared_attrib.append(33) mo.shared_attrib MyOtherClass.shared_attrib HTH -- bruno desthuilliers python -c "print '@'.join(['.'.join([w[::-1] for w in p.split('.')]) for p in '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'.split('@')])" -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
