<h1 class="epydoc">Class PIBase</h1><p class="nomargin-top"></p>
<pre class="base-tree">
object --+
|
_Element --+
|
__ContentOnlyElement --+
|
_ProcessingInstruction --+
|
<strong class="uidshort">PIBase</strong>
</pre>
<dl><dt>Known Subclasses:</dt>
<dd>
<ul class="subclass-list">
<li class="private">_XSLTProcessingInstruction</li><li class="private">, html.HtmlProcessingInstruction</li> </ul>
</dd></dl>
<hr />
<p>All custom Processing Instruction classes must inherit from this one.</p>
<p>Note that you cannot (and must not) instantiate this class or its
subclasses.</p>
<p>Subclasses <em>must not</em> override __init__ or __new__ as it is
absolutely undefined when these objects will be created or
destroyed. All persistent state of PIs must be stored in the
underlying XML. If you really need to initialize the object after
creation, you can implement an <tt class="rst-docutils literal"><span class="pre">_init(self)</span></tt> method that will be
called after object creation.</p>
