Hi Peter,
getToolByName depends on acquisition to work, and the one place that it doesn't work is in a constructor ;) Yes, that's true, but I think you can make it work if you pass the REQUEST (or I think the object itself) that calls the init method. ie:
def manage_addMyProduct(self, p1, p2, ..., REQUEST=None, submit=None): """Method that is called to create an instance on the zope db""" #Do something here #Then create the object: myObj=MyProduct(self,p1,p2) self._setObject(id,boringObj) #Do request redirection things here class MyProduct: def __init__(self, callerObj, p1, p2): """Inits your product""" ppt=getToolByName(callerObj,"parasynpip_tool") I don't know if it is the right sintax, but once I did something similar. If I'm not wrong, it is on the book of Dieter, or it is on a message that he posted. Regards, Josef
