(which is not the back Ref of the previous one: it is another,
independent Ref).
In p1, you have
from p2 import P2
class P1:
ref1 = Ref(P2)
Then, if you write the following in p2, python will complain because of a
circular import:
from p1 import P1
class P2:
ref2 = Ref(P1)
The solution is to write this. In p1:
from p2 import P2
class P1:
ref1 = Ref(P2)
autoref(P1, P2.ref2)
And, in p2:
class P2:
ref2 = Ref(None)
'''
field.klass = klass
setattr(klass, field.back.attribute, field.back)
