Hi all,

I have the following situation: I have an interface type (a class with pure=
 virtual methods only, no data members), and an actual implementation type =
(having the actual data members). The interface type is used in all public =
interfaces, but the only implementation of it is the one implementation typ=
e.

Is there any way for a python pretty printer to do (or 'mimic') a dynamic c=
ast, such that I can show the members of the implementation type where ever=
 I have the interface type?

Jens.
