Why are you doing this anyway? If you inherit from `int` you shouldn't store the value in an extra attribute but use the `int`\s value. This way you have one value used by the `int` methods and one used by your own methods. Ciao, Marc 'BlackJack' Rintsch -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

At the top level, I would like the ability to bitwise ops if bit slice brackets are used, but if no brackets are used, I would like it to write/read the whole value. For example, if I have something like: shadow_register = MyRegClass(0xAA) shadow_register 170 shadow_register[7:4] = 3 # == changes value to 0x3A shadow_register 58 shadow_register = 0x89 shadow_register 137 shadow_register[4:1] 4 I have the bitslice part working. But of course as expected, if I type shadow_register __main__.boo object at 0x00A130D0 I wanted to avoid having something like shadow_register.value just because it's clumsier. I read about the __new__() class for overriding the classtype, like: print 'foo' class foo(object): def __new__(*args): return 0 but if I stick in a __init__(self, val): method, then it chokes saying val is a global name that's not defined. Now I know that I have to live with the fact that I can't have shadow_register = 0x89 Because it will get reassigned from my class value to a newly intialized memory location (int object). But can I have it read the value without the .value extension? Is this even possible? Maybe there's a way to override the = operator? (Go easy on me - I'm a hardware guy). Interesting what you're doing. I've struggled with the same issues, simulating a pic, never really solved them. Maybe this is what you're looking for: class MyRegClass ( object ) : def __init__ ( self, value ) : self.Value = value def __repr__ ( self ) : line = hex ( self.Value ) line = line [:2] + line [2:].upper() return line btw, I'm a hardware guy too, and therefor I've never understood why the hex function returns lowercase ;-) cheers, Stef -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: verilog like class w/ bitslicing int/long classtype
Thanks. So far these solutions will return strings. So I can't really treat it like a variable, yet still perform bitslice on it, since I need a special class to do bitslice and bit selection, but as soon as I try to pass it into some other function to check a bit, I gotta then do another operation to convert back to a variable. So I can get it to a point where I can do shadow_register[3] and get the value of any bit, or I can do shadow_register[4:2] and get a bitslice, and I can write them just as easily at this point. If I add the __new__ method into the class, the instance obj becomes int, but is no longer slicable. I think it looks like I can't have it both ways. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
