How do I add a method with a decorator to a class? I tried

def add_decorator( cls ):
    @dec
    def update(self):
        pass

    cls.update = update

usage

 add_decorator( MyClass )

 MyClass.update()

but MyClass.update does not have the decorator

@dec did not apply to update

I'm trying to use this with orm.reconstructor in sqlalchemy.
