Copying a CIAOToolParFile instance results in RecursionError

[adonath]

To reproduce:

from ciao_contrib.runtool import dmcopy
import copy

copy.deepcopy(dmcopy)

Results in:

...
   1085 """Provide support for read using tool.parameter syntax"""
   1086 try:
-> 1087     pname = self._expand_parname(parname)
   1088 except UnknownParamError as ue:
   1089     raise AttributeError(str(ue)) from None

RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded

This does not seem correct behavior to me.

I would have to think about this, but that is not going to be for a while. You should be able to use ciao_contrib.runtool.make_tool to let you make "copies" of a tool, but at the expense of it not picking up any parameters that have been changed - e.g. dmcopy.verbose = 5 foo = make_tool("dmcopy") will have foo.verbose set to 0 (the default value) and not the dmcopy.verbose value I just set.

Thanks @DougBurke, there is no hurry from my side. Meanwhile I'll try the make_tool command.
