@ -4018,27 +4018,6 @@ code that is byte-compiled together. The same restriction applies to
\code{getattr()}, \code{setattr()} and \code{delattr()}, as well as
when referencing \code{__dict__} directly.
Here's an example of a class that implements its own
\method{__getattr__()} and \method{__setattr__()} methods and stores
all attributes in a private variable, in a way that works in all
versions of Python, including those available before this feature was
added:
\begin{verbatim}
class VirtualAttributes:
__vdict = None
__vdict_name = locals().keys()[0]
def __init__(self):
self.__dict__[self.__vdict_name] = {}
def __getattr__(self, name):
return self.__vdict[name]
def __setattr__(self, name, value):
self.__vdict[name] = value
\end{verbatim}
