Python multiple inheritance constructor not called when using super()

Question

Consider the following code:

class A(object):
    def __init__(self):
        pass
class B(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.something = \'blue\'         


        

Answer 1

As others have mentioned, the method resolution order is key here. If you want to call multiple superclass constructors, then you will have to call them directly.

class A(object):
    def __init__(self):
        pass
class B(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.something = 'blue'
    def get_something(self):
        return self.something
class C(A,B):
    def __init__(self):
        A.__init__(self)
        B.__init__(self)
        print(self.get_something())
