    <p>Is it possible to assign attributes to the <code>'Nonetype' object</code> to tell Python what to do if they are called?</p> <p>Here is my problem: </p> <p>I have a class that functions as a library to store instances of <code>myOtherObject</code>. Before adding an instance, it first checks if that key already exists and then appends the data to the instance assigned to that key rather than overwriting it. </p> <pre><code>class MyClass: def __init__(self): self.myLibrary = {} def __setitem__(self, key, item): if key not in self.myLibrary: self.myLibrary[key] = myOtherObject(name=item[0], attr1=[item[1]], attr2=[item[2]]) else: self.myLibrary[key].attr1.append(item[1]) self.myLibrary[key].attr2.append(item[2]) def __getitem__(self, key): if key in self.myLibrary: return self.myLibrary[key] else: return None #??? </code></pre> <p>When retrieving data from the library it should check if the key exists too, and only return the assigned object if the key exists. This works fine or calling just the object, however not when calling the attributes of that object:</p> <pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; o = MyClass() &gt;&gt;&gt; o['key1'] = ['name1','b','c'] &gt;&gt;&gt; o['key1'] &lt;__main__.myOtherObject instance at 0x05509B48&gt; &gt;&gt;&gt; o['key1'].attr1 'b' &gt;&gt;&gt; o['key2'] &gt;&gt;&gt; o['key2'].attr1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt; AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'attr1' </code></pre> <p>Can I somehow tell Python not to do anything and just return <code>None</code> when attributes <code>attr1</code> and <code>attr2</code> are called from the <code>'NoneType' object</code>?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
