class NotifierMixin(object):
    """
    Mixin class that provides services by which objects can register
    listeners to changes on that object.

    All methods provided by this class are underscored, since this is intended
    for internal use to communicate between classes in a generic way, and is
    not machinery that should be exposed to users of the classes involved.

    Use the ``_add_listener`` method to register a listener on an instance of
    the notifier.  This registers the listener with a weak reference, so if
    no other references to the listener exist it is automatically dropped from
    the list and does not need to be manually removed.

    Call the ``_notify`` method on the notifier to update all listeners
    upon changes.  ``_notify('change_type', *args, **kwargs)`` results
    in calling ``listener._update_change_type(*args, **kwargs)`` on all
    listeners subscribed to that notifier.

    If a particular listener does not have the appropriate update method
    it is ignored.

class classproperty(property):
    """
    Similar to `property`, but allows class-level properties.  That is,
    a property whose getter is like a `classmethod`.

    The wrapped method may explicitly use the `classmethod` decorator (which
    must become before this decorator), or the `classmethod` may be omitted
    (it is implicit through use of this decorator).

    .. note::

        classproperty only works for *read-only* properties.  It does not
        currently allow writeable/deleteable properties, due to subtleties of how
        Python descriptors work.  In order to implement such properties on a class
        a metaclass for that class must be implemented.

    Parameters
    ----------
    fget : callable
        The function that computes the value of this property (in particular,
        the function when this is used as a decorator) a la `property`.

    doc : str, optional
        The docstring for the property--by default inherited from the getter
        function.

    lazy : bool, optional
        If True, caches the value returned by the first call to the getter
        function, so that it is only called once (used for lazy evaluation
        of an attribute).  This is analogous to `lazyproperty`.  The ``lazy``
        argument can also be used when `classproperty` is used as a decorator
        (see the third example below).  When used in the decorator syntax this
        *must* be passed in as a keyword argument.

    Examples
    --------

    ::

        >>> class Foo(object):
        ...     _bar_internal = 1
        ...     @classproperty
        ...     def bar(cls):
        ...         return cls._bar_internal + 1
        ...
        >>> Foo.bar
        2
        >>> foo_instance = Foo()
        >>> foo_instance.bar
        2
        >>> foo_instance._bar_internal = 2
        >>> foo_instance.bar  # Ignores instance attributes
        2

    As previously noted, a `classproperty` is limited to implementing
    read-only attributes::

        >>> class Foo(object):
        ...     _bar_internal = 1
        ...     @classproperty
        ...     def bar(cls):
        ...         return cls._bar_internal
        ...     @bar.setter
        ...     def bar(cls, value):
        ...         cls._bar_internal = value
        ...
        Traceback (most recent call last):
        ...
        NotImplementedError: classproperty can only be read-only; use a
        metaclass to implement modifiable class-level properties

    When the ``lazy`` option is used, the getter is only called once::

        >>> class Foo(object):
        ...     @classproperty(lazy=True)
        ...     def bar(cls):
        ...         print("Performing complicated calculation")
        ...         return 1
        ...
        >>> Foo.bar
        Performing complicated calculation
        1
        >>> Foo.bar
        1

    If a subclass inherits a lazy `classproperty` the property is still
    re-evaluated for the subclass::

        >>> class FooSub(Foo):
        ...     pass
        ...
        >>> FooSub.bar
        Performing complicated calculation
        1
        >>> FooSub.bar
        1
