I have a class that inherits from two other classes whose __init__ take both a parameter like this:
class A(object):
def __init__(self, a):
self.a = a
class B(object):
def __init__(self, b):
self.b = b
class C(A, B):
def __init__(self, a, b):
super(C, self).__init__(a, b)
c = ClassC(1, 2)
This gives a TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 2 arguments (3 given).
When setting b in B to a fixed value and passing only 1 parameter to super then trying to access b in C gives an AttributeError: 'ClassC' object has no attribute 'b':
class A(object):
def __init__(self, a):
self.a = a
class B(object):
def __init__(self, b):
self.b = 2
class C(A, B):
def __init__(self, a, b):
super(C, self).__init__(a)
print self.a
print self.b
c = ClassC(1, 2)
When calling the __init__ manually everything seems to be fine:
class A(object):
def __init__(self, a):
self.a = a
class B(object):
def __init__(self, b):
self.b = b
class C(A, B):
def __init__(self, a, b):
A.__init__(a)
B.__init__(b)
print self.a
print self.b
c = ClassC(1, 2)
So how can I get this inheritance straight and how can I manage the parameters for __init__ of inherited classes when using super? Is it even possible? How does super know which parameters are to pass to which class?
