Re: Setting a read-only attribute

How can I go about this?

This seems like a bizarre requirement. Why is the attribute read-only in the first place? How is the read-only mechanism enforced? Is the object created in Python or in an extension module? Do you have any evidence that "setting" the attribute will effect the required change in the behavior of the object.

A little more information would be helpful.
