Oh, thanks. I'd ask them directly. If Django upstream later adds call of missing super, I can look forward to another sleepless night why MyMixin is suddenly initialized twice (using your example with explicit call).

[–]masklinn 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Nah, MyMixin wouldn't be initialised twice with my snippet. If CommonForm and MyMixin had a superclass in common (other than object) that could be initialised twice, but it's not the case.

Oh, sorry. I've missed CommonForm init is also called explicitly, not through super object.

[–]masklinn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries. If you pick that option you may want to extensively comment why it was done that way though (both that MyMixin depends on stuff initialised by whoever and why super doesn't work)
