What does it take to make an object publishable from an ExternalMethod? I.E., I have a class (see bottom of message) that does some url traversal trickery, that works from a python product. Shouldn't I be able to just stick it in an External method, and just return it, i.e.:
def returnme(self): return MyClass()
Check out the object publishing chapter of the developer's guide http://www.zope.org/Documentation/ZDG/ObjectPublishing.dtml The reason that your example doesn't work is that you are calling the external method, not using getattr, getitem, or __bobo_traverse__ to traverse over it. When you call an object you are publishing it, not traversing over it. In short, you can't traverse over the results of an External Method. -Amos -- Amos Latteier mailto:amos@digicool.com Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com
