Re: [Zope] Return a image instance from script

Hi Tino,

...

In Zope: def test(): foo=open('new.gif') return foo

I really doubt the open() part here.

You are absolutely right. It is: def test():

...

foo=container.new_gif return foo

No, it just uses repr() here, which maps to the objects __str__ Method which happens to render a HTML tag for the image.

It depends on what you want to do with it.

I want to pass a file object to an external method to use PIL. Since I can not use StringIO within Zope I need to pass an appropriate object to the external method and do the StringIO in the external method. Regards Christoph
