[Zope-dev] Automatically reindexing CatalogAware objects

The problem with CatalogAware objects is that you have to add self.reindex_object() to any method that updates them. I think I've thought of a way to solve this - tell me if/where I'm wrong: Every time a CA object gets changed a transaction is commited, which means the object gets pickled and saved into the ZODB. Every time an object is pickled its __getstate__ method is called. So, we define the following __getstate__ for the CatalogAware class: def __getstate__(self) self.reindex_object() # is __getstate__ supposed to return self? return self Would this work? -- Itamar S.T. itamars@ibm.net
