How to access object instance from property instance? (in `update` callback)

Question

I am trying to create an add-on to create parametric objects (Blender 2.8rc1)

I have defined a custom PropertyGroup, i.e.:

def _update(self, context):
    print(repr(self))

class FurnigenProperties(types.PropertyGroup):
    width: FloatProperty(
        update=_update,
        unit='LENGTH'
    )
    length: FloatProperty(
        update=_update,
        unit='LENGTH'
    )

When I change property I can see out of _update:

bpy.data.objects['GeneratedObject'].parametric_properties

What I essentially want to get access to would be bpy.data.objects['GeneratedObject'] however I am unclear how to get from self in callback function to actual object that property we just modified.

Looking at documentation for bpy.props.FloatProperty there isn't much detail on what I should expect context to be.

I.e. would context be the place to retrieve object reference? I was thinking about context.object, but I am not clear how object is determined. Is that object selected by user in viewport? In which case it wouldn't work if I modified property from some other Python code (as it would be most likely for a collection of objects of which none would be selected by user). Or is context.object in callback guaranteed to point to object that self belongs to in above callback?

edit:

context.object doesn't seem to work. I just tried setting value of one of my properties through Python console and the object that I get from context.object is (as I expected) object selected in viewport and not the object I modified property of.

Answer 1

id_data

the id_data property of any blender object is a refernce to the ID type object it belongs to.

def _update(self, context):
    print(self.id_data)
