The way SO does things is quite nice. I do like the use of metaclasses to add in new methods as a result of joins. But, there needs to be a way to inspect the objects to see what methods and attributes have been automagically added, I think. I'm just speculating--because I haven't had the problem yet--that it could be quite easy to accidentally over-ride an automagically added method/attribute. Particularly if you've got a lot of classes, or wrote them a long time ago, or somebody else wrote them. In which case, it isn't at all obvious the methods/attributes of each object are. ...Edmund. |
