... All the documentation I've read says that the 'selection' type for a property of a ZClass property sheet can be a variable *or a method*. Fine. This works as advertised, except where the method is a method *defined within the Zclass* (e.g. as MyZClass.propertysheets.methods.myMethod ). Is this a known bug? A feature? Do I need some arcane Zope Zen syntax to unlock this behaviour?
N.B. If the method resides *outside* the ZClass (e.g. as a python script in the root folder) all things works just fine.
The only 'diagnostic' I get is on the property sheet containing the selection type property: it displays e.g. 'No value for myMethod' instead of the expected drop-down box.
I used this already and it worked (so I do not have time at the moment to check whether it still works). It will not work in the constructor form (as at that time there is not yet a ZInstance that can access "methods" directly). It should work as soon as you have a ZInstance. Dieter
