Question

For example, in C# I can do the following using reflection:

public class A
{
    object obj1;

    [MyCustumAttribute(data)]
    public object Obj1Property
    { get; set; }

    public A() {}
}

public static void Main(string[] args)
{
    Type t = typeof(a);
    PropertyInfo[] props = t.GetProperties();
    attrs = props[0].GetCustomAttributes();

    //Do something with the properties based on their custom attributes
}

Note that I can do the same thing with A’s methods, data members, etc. not just on properties.

Is there a way to do this same type of thing in Python 2.7?

EDIT: After re-reading your question I realized that the reflection aspect wasn’t addressed. The answer is still no from what I can find though. .NET reflection doesn’t seem to address DLR types (e.g. IronPython, IronRuby). There is a reflection mechanism in python that you may be able to utilize though, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/1447529/635634 for details.

Not really, but you can sort of achieve the same effect using DevHawk’s solution.
