Attributes


MENU.__class__ <type 'type'> extends (<type 'object'>,) belongs to class <type 'type'>
type(object) -> the object's type type(name, bases, dict) -> a new type

MENU.__delattr__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__delattr__('name') <==> del x.name

MENU.__delitem__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
deletes attribute with name 'i' or component #i. :param i: index if i is a string: the name of the attribute otherwise references to number of the component

MENU.__dict__ <type 'dictproxy'> belongs to class <type 'dictproxy'>

MENU.__doc__ <type 'str'> belongs to class <type 'str'>
str(object) -> string Return a nice string representation of the object. If the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.

MENU.__getattribute__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__getattribute__('name') <==> x.name

MENU.__getitem__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
gets attribute with name 'i' or component #i. If attribute 'i' is not found returns None :param i: index if i is a string: the name of the attribute otherwise references to number of the component

MENU.__hash__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__hash__() <==> hash(x)

MENU.__init__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>

MENU.__len__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
returns the number of included components

MENU.__module__ <type 'str'> belongs to class <type 'str'>
str(object) -> string Return a nice string representation of the object. If the argument is a string, the return value is the same object.

MENU.__new__ <type 'builtin_function_or_method'> belongs to class <type 'builtin_function_or_method'>
T.__new__(S, ...) -> a new object with type S, a subtype of T

MENU.__nonzero__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
always return True

MENU.__reduce__ <type 'method_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'method_descriptor'>
helper for pickle

MENU.__reduce_ex__ <type 'method_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'method_descriptor'>
helper for pickle

MENU.__repr__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__repr__() <==> repr(x)

MENU.__setattr__ <type 'wrapper_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'wrapper_descriptor'>
x.__setattr__('name', value) <==> x.name = value

MENU.__setitem__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
sets attribute with name 'i' or component #i. :param i: index if i is a string: the name of the attribute otherwise references to number of the component :param value: the new value

MENU.__str__ <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
str(COMPONENT) returns equals COMPONENT.xml()

MENU.__weakref__ <type 'getset_descriptor'> belongs to class <type 'getset_descriptor'>
list of weak references to the object (if defined)

MENU._fixup <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Handling of provided components. Nothing to fixup yet. May be overridden by subclasses, eg for wrapping some components in another component or blocking them.

MENU._postprocessing <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
Handling of attributes (normally the ones not prefixed with '_'). Nothing to postprocess yet. May be overridden by subclasses

MENU._setnode <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>

MENU._traverse <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>

MENU._validate <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
nothing to validate yet. May be overridden by subclasses

MENU._wrap_components <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
helper for _fixup. Checks if a component is in allowed_parents, otherwise wraps it in wrap_parent :param allowed_parents: (tuple) classes that the component should be an instance of :param wrap_parent: the class to wrap the component in, if needed :param wrap_lambda: lambda to use for wrapping, if needed

MENU._xml <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
helper for xml generation. Returns separately: - the component attributes - the generated xml of the inner components Component attributes start with an underscore ('_') and do not have a False or None value. The underscore is removed and the name will be in lower case. A value of True is replaced with the attribute name. :returns: tuple: (attributes, components)

MENU.append <type 'instancemethod'> belongs to class <type 'instancemethod'>
