Heh, interesting, and it occurs to me that you could do that by
accident (A inherits from B, and then something imports B and makes an
inheriting class that inadvertently happens to be called A). I.e. the
name mangling can fail its intended purpose.
# your code:
class Secret:
def __init__(self):
self.__hidden = "very secret value"
class Parrot(secret): pass
# my code
from yourcode import Parrot
class Secret(Parrot): # I'm not aware that you also have a Secret class
def spam(self, x):
self.__hidden = zoo(x) # clobbers yourcode's version of secret
def eggs(self): # might inadvertently read your version's
try:
return self.__hidden
except AttributeError:
self.spam(cached_value)
