Getting a class name from within main

[bg_ie@yahoo.com]

Hi,

Lets say I have the following class -

class MyClass:
def __init__(self):
print (__name__.split ("."))[-1]

if __name__ == '__main__':
MyClassName = "MyClass"

I can print the name of the class from within the class scope as seen
above in the init, but is there any way of printing it from within the
main without creating an object of the MyClass type. I need to assign
the name of the class within my script, to a variable in main.

Thanks,

Barry.

Yes::

print MyClass.__name_ _

I would spell this:
print self.__class__. __name__
