AttributeError: 'MeasureSource' object has no attribute 'export' #225
Description
I am attempting to add Observable_Package_Source.
source = MeasureSource()
source.name = "Automatically Generated SCI NAME"
source.description = "Automatic Description"
contributors = Personnel()
contrib = Contributor()
contrib.name = "Support"
contributors.append(contrib)
source.contributors = contributors
tools = ToolInformationList()
tool = ToolInformation()
tool.name = "Test"
tool.version = "2.2.0"
tools.append(tool)
source.tools = tools
observables.observable_package_source = source
observables.set_Observable_Package_Source(source)
# debug print
print "This: %s" % observables.get_Observable_Package_Source().to_xml()
outfile = open(outfilename, 'w')
outfile.write('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>\n')
nsparser = NamespaceParser(observables.get_Observable())
ns_string = nsparser.build_namespaces_schemalocations_str()
observables.export(outfile, 0, namespacedef_=ns_string)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cybox-2.0.1.2-py2.7.egg/cybox/bindings/cybox_core.py", line 912, in exportChildren
self.Observable_Package_Source.export(outfile, level, "cybox:", name_='Observable_Package_Source', pretty_print=pretty_print)
AttributeError: 'MeasureSource' object has no attribute 'export'
Am I adding the Observable_Package_Source incorrectly?

Hey, @kkuehl, sorry for the (woefully) late response.
It looks like you might be mixing "bindings" objects and "API" objects. Most bindings objects have class names ending in
Type, and you manipulate them by callingget_Xorset_X. API classes do not end inType, and you manipulate them by directly getting or setting attributes. It looks like "observables" is a binding object (cybox.bindings.cybox_core.ObservablesType), whilesourceis an API objectcybox.common.MeasureSource.You can get around this by changing:
to
but you might be better off using the API version:
cybox.core.Observables. API objects were designed to be easier to use than the bindings objects, which are defined in auto-generated code.to_objconverts an API object to a binding object, and you can do the reverse withObservables.from_obj(<binding_obj>)For a larger discussion of API objects vs. Binding objects (in the context of STIX, but the concept is identical), see http://stix.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api_vs_bindings/index.html
