using super

[sashan]

I'm trying to use super but keep getting the following error

E:\Code\Python\Nexus\Player>python ./super_test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./super_test.py", line 14, in ?
main()
File "./super_test.py", line 11, in main
b = B()
File "./super_test.py", line 7, in __init__
super(B, self).__init()
TypeError: super() argument 1 must be type, not classobj

Here's the code:
class A:
def __init__(self):
print 'A'

class B(A):
def __init__(self):
super(B, self).__init()
print 'B'

def main():
b = B()

if __name__ == '__main__':
main()

super() only works for "new style" classes, that is classes that extend
Python's object type. class A(object) should solve your problem.

Cheers, Matt

Here's the code:

You will also need to correct:
super(B, self).__init()
to read
super(B, self).__init__()
