Hi, In my zope3 tests, I set up some basic test data. After that, I'm calling transaction.commit(). However, I get the following traceback:
--------------- snip ------------------- File "copy_reg.py", line 69, in _reduce_ex raise TypeError, "can't pickle %s objects" % base.__name__ TypeError: can't pickle module objects ------------------ snip -------------------
I found it by myself: I registered a zope.sqlalchemy related utility, which stores an engine (self.engine = create_engine(DSN,...)) and a scoped session (self.Session = scoped_session(sessionmaker...)). These two objects cannot be serialized, hence the above problem.
Now I'm unsure what to do about this problem - is there any code available that demonstrates how to register SA engines/Sessions as utilities?
The simplest solution is to register the Session object as a global utility.
Though that would be quite unnecessary too ;-). If you are ok with one global scoped session for your app, then just use `from mymodule import Session; session = Session()`. Laurence
