I've got an external method written which is able to create a new object by calling the ZClass.createInObjectManager method. However, I'm not sure how to code up the code contained in the dtml-with block using Python. I suspect that I could get things to work for the example above with something like this:
(self is the product containing my ZClass definition)
newobj = self.ZClass.createInObjectManager(REQUEST['id'], REQUEST) newobj.propertysheets.instanceProperties.manage_editProperties(REQUEST) newobj.unindex_object() newobj.manage_editCataloger('MyCatalog', REQUEST) newobj.index_object()
This looks right.
However, I'm interested in knowing how do code up stuff in Python which would take into account acquisition.
Acquisition is built into Zope objects; the only time you should ever have to "take [it] into account" is if you are trying to acquire an object with a non-identifier Id, or whose Id is stored in a variable. In these cases "anobj.aq_acquire('foo.html')" and "anobj.aq_acquire(fooname)" should do. Cheers, Evan @ digicool & 4-am
