I'm trying to split my huge class into two; well, basically into the "main" class and a mixin with additional functions, like so: main.py file: import mymixin.py class Main(object, MyMixin): def func1(self, xxx): ... mymixin.py file: class MyMixin(object): def func2(self: Main, xxx): # <--- note the type hint ... Now, while this works just fine, the type hint in MyMixin.func2 of course can't work. I can't import main.py, because I'd get a cyclic import and without the hint, my editor (PyCharm) can't tell what self is.
