def partialclass(cls: Type[Any], *args: Any, **kwds: Any) -> Type[Any]: (source) ¶

Bind a class to be created with some predefined __init__ arguments.

def resolve_path(path: str) -> Path: (source) ¶

Parse a given path string to a Path object.

The path is converted to an absolute path, as required by System.setSourceHref(). The path does not need to exist.
