Type PyType

        PyType

User defined type.

Named type that contains a type check function and a type class that
inherits from ObjectifiedDataElement.  The type check must take a string
as argument and raise ValueError or TypeError if it cannot handle the
string value.  It may be None in which case it is not considered for type
guessing.

Example:
    PyType('int', int, MyIntClass).register()

Note that the order in which types are registered matters.  The first
matching type will be used.

Method Summary
	`__init__(...)` x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature
	`__new__(T, S, ...)` T.__new__(S, ...) -> a new object with type S, a subtype of T
	`__repr__(x)` x.__repr__() <==> repr(x)
	`register(...)` Register the type.
	`unregister(...)`
Inherited from object
	`__delattr__(...)` x.__delattr__('name') <==> del x.name
	`__getattribute__(...)` x.__getattribute__('name') <==> x.name
	`__hash__(x)` x.__hash__() <==> hash(x)
	`__reduce__(...)` helper for pickle
	`__reduce_ex__(...)` helper for pickle
	`__setattr__(...)` x.__setattr__('name', value) <==> x.name = value
	`__str__(x)` x.__str__() <==> str(x)

Method Details

init(...)
(Constructor)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

Overrides:: __builtin__.object.__init__

new(T, S, ...)

T.__new__(S, ...) -> a new object with type S, a subtype of T

Returns:

a new object with type S, a subtype of T

Overrides:: __builtin__.object.__new__

repr(x)
(Representation operator)

x.__repr__() <==> repr(x)

Returns:

repr(x)

Overrides:: __builtin__.object.__repr__

register(...)

The additional keyword arguments 'before' and 'after' accept a sequence of type names that must appear before/after the new type in the type list. If any of them is not currently known, it is simply ignored. Raises ValueError if the dependencies cannot be fulfilled.
