So long as the string doesn't contain a space, then it is always interned by Python:
a = 'Not Found' b = 'Not Found' a is b 0 a = 'Unauthorized' b = 'Unauthorized' a is b 1
So it works if the string exception doesn't contain a space, otherwise you're hosed ;^) -Casey On Fri, 25 Oct 2002 20:46:32 +0200 Florent Guillaume <fg@nuxeo.com> wrote:
This kind of thing only works if the 'Unauthorized' string is always interned, which I'm not sure is guaranteed...
I know I've had things like that *not* work in python scripts.

I think the following should do what you want:
for foo in bar.objectvalues() try: mo = foo.getProperty('menu_order', None) except 'Unauthorized': continue ..do stuff..
