It has among many other things : - Handlers: ability to handle logs in a different way, logging on stdout, on a file, on the network ... - Filters: ability to filter logs, depending on their severity, content or whatsoever - Thread safe - fully integrated with any other application using the logging module - configuration file - it's standard If you plan to release your module to the python community, using the logging module is something you should consider. Only by stating that your module is using the standard logging module will allow any user to configure it as they se fit. btw The code is usually the following: import logging logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) JM </pre> Jean-Michel Pichavant 2012-05-22T11:24:52 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.general/710990 <pre>I may be stating somthing you already know, sorry if it happends. __del__ is *not* executed upon a del statement, so I hope you don't have any del(obj) assuming __del__ will be called. That is not true. __del__ is called when there's no reference to an object any more, *AND* when the python implementation feels in the mood for it, which is specific to that implemenation. There's a chance that a class method won't fix anything, if it does, it's not reliable anyway.

And what percentage will you be charging your client? 15 percent? 25 percent? Even if you were to offer 15% of your (say) 15% commission you should be offering over a grand.

Dabo is OK but is like a big wizard. You fix you underlying data structure then it creates basic menus, data entry screens, etc. The basic stuff is OK but you need change the underlying code to customize the screens and you are bound to use the classes created by the developers (you can create you own but all sorts of interactions can happen apparently, and although it can be done, care needs to be taken to avoid conflicts -- the recommendation by the developers to is use the existing classes whenever possible). On top of this the project is not being developed any more. What is there, is what is there. The developers occasionally jump on the forums to propose a solution to an interesting problem but state that no further development will be happening. The community is still active however and there are a number of devotees. Personally, when I reviewed it, I wanted to develop a different dialog screen and database model than what Dabo is designed to address, which me</pre> Simon Cropper 2012-05-22T02:37:05 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.general/710983 <pre>FWIW, I do manual argument parsing, because pylint understands how to detect typos with manual argument parsing, but not the highly dynamic modules that parse arguments.

Rereading the documentation, I guess that this should have been expected, but if nowI() were a static method of the class, would that have avoided the problem?
