Re: [Zope] Checking variable types in Python Script

How do I use type() in Python scripts. You do not, it is private. It seems that type() is restricted code (why?) It would confuse many users.

is there any special replacement for type checking? There is "same_type(object,sample)". It tests whether "object" and "sample" are of the same type.

For Zope objects, you can use "meta_type" (which will usually (but not always) give good results). Dieter
