An implementation of Java's Override annotation as a python decorator. (Only lightly tested)

Override.py

class Annotation(object):
    def __init__(self, method):
        self.method = method
    # end __init__

    def __get__(self, obj, objtype):
        return lambda *args, **kwargs: self.__call__(obj, *args, **kwargs)
    # end __get__
# end Annotation


class Override(Annotation):
    def __call__(self, obj, *args, **kwargs):
        # Check that parrent has the method
        getattr(super(obj.__class__, obj), self.method.__name__)
        return self.method(obj, *args, **kwargs)
    # end __call__
# end Override
