A dictionary of properties which can be indexed by dataname or column name (the name visible in the project).

Instance Methods

[hide private]

new empty dictionary

__init__(self, pdict, name_dict)
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature

__getitem__(self, item)
First checks the main dictionary, then checks the name dictionary for the item.

__setitem__(self, item, value)
Checks if this looks like a dataname.

True if D has a key k, else False

has_key(self, key)

Method Details

[hide private]

init(self, pdict, name_dict)
(Constructor)

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see help(type(x)) for signature

Returns: new empty dictionary
Overrides: object.__init__: (inherited documentation)

getitem(self, item)
(Indexing operator)

First checks the main dictionary, then checks the name dictionary for the item.

Overrides: dict.__getitem__

setitem(self, item, value)
(Index assignment operator)

Checks if this looks like a dataname. If so, then it adds the item directly. If not, then it checks if it is a column name (often called the user name - the name visible in the table). If it finds the user name, then it adds the item directly. If not, then it constructs a dataname based on the type of the item.

Overrides: dict.__setitem__

has_key(self, key)

Returns: True if D has a key k, else False
Overrides: dict.has_key: (inherited documentation)
