Re: [Zope] how to delete an object from python??

I wonder how to delete an object from a python script. When I try oName = context.this().getId() f = context.REQUEST.PARENTS[1] f._delObject( oName ) I can not even save the script because zope complains that SyntaxError, Names starting with "_" are not allowed (_delObject). As a rule of thumb:

Objects starting with '_' indicate private objects; to be used only for internal tasks, usually not used from outside the class. Zope's security enforces part of this privacy.... There is an "official" method to delete object: "manage_delObjects". As the name suggests, it deletes a list (!) of objects, identified by id. Its a method of "ObjectManager". Dieter
