Return value while using cProfile

Question

I\'m trying to profile an instance method, so I\'ve done something like:

import cProfile

class Test():

    def __init__(self):
        pass

    def method         


        

Answer 1

I think @detly the .runcall() is basically the best answer, but for completeness, I just wanted to take @ThomasH 's answer to be function independent:

def wrapper(b, f, *myargs, **mykwargs):
    try:
        b.append(f(*myargs, **mykwargs))
    except TypeError:
        print 'bad args passed to func.'

# Example run
def func(a, n):
    return n*a + 1

b = []
cProfile.runctx("wrapper(b, func, 3, n=1)", globals(), locals())
a = b[0]
print 'a, ', a
