How do I retrieve the object a method handle is bound to?

Question

Given a method handle in Python 3, how do I retrieve the object it is part of?

class Myclass:
    def foo(self):
        print(self, 'foo')

m = Myclass()

method_handle = m.foo
print(method_handle) # -> <bound method Myclass.foo of <__main__.Myclass object at 0x7fb80220dd10>>

The method_handle object has a reference to the m instance somewhere. But if I only have the method_handle, how do I retrieve the m object?

Answer 1

Never mind, I just found it: it is in method_handle.__self__.
