super function doesn't work inside a maya python module

Question

Somehow, this works fine in the Maya/Python script editor, but fails when it\'s inside of my module code. Anyone have any ideas?

class ControlShape(object):
         


        

Answer 1

It is good rule of thumb if you're using the super(Class, self).__init__ that you ALWAYS call it this way. This applies to your classes that inherit from object.

class ControlShape(object):
   def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
      super(ControlShape, self).__init__()
      print 'Inside ControlShape...'

See if that fixes your error. Just a guess as I don't use maya, but worth a shot.
