I am trying to write a new subclass of OFS.Folder (as a python product) to do the following: When a user requests /myFolder/index_html, myFolder will search itself, then its list of 'parents', returning the attribute from one of them if they have it, and raising an AttributeError if not.
Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly does this accomplish that isn't accomplished by Acquisition?
Basically, it lets you acquire from a fixed set of parents instead of the entire aquisition path. I'm battling this out for behaviours as well. Another way to think of this is mix-in classes working within the user-space instead of zclass space. Cheers, Anthony Pfrunder
