[Zope-dev] zasync/xmlrpclib problem

Gary, When zasync is used on something that calls a xmlrpclib method s.foo.bar() (using s = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy(...)) and this xmlrpc call fails, it seems that cleanFailure at some point calls repr (s.foo.bar) and this makes a spurious xmlrpc call (because of the dumb _Method class of xmlrpclib which has a __getattr__ but no __repr__). I had to monkey patch xmlrpclib thus, you could probably include it in zasync: import xmlrpclib def xmlrpc_method_repr(self): return '<xmlrpc._Method %s>' % self._Method__name xmlrpclib._Method.__repr__ = xmlrpc_method_repr Florent -- Florent Guillaume, Nuxeo (Paris, France) Director of R&D +33 1 40 33 71 59 http://nuxeo.com fg@nuxeo.com
