I know that the question has been answered but your question makes me ask another: why would you want to adapt an object with itself?
The sake of logical consistency should be enough. If you think of it, it's very similar to addition of zero : why would you want to add "nothing" ? Not having to predict where/if/when such special cases may blow in your face is very useful, and has indeed been very productive in the past. -- Georges Racinet, http://www.racinet.fr, http://anybox.fr Zope/CPS & OpenERP expertise, assistance & development GPG: 0x4862FFF7 identi.ca & twitter: gracinet
