I have a class that extends 'Folder' and in this class i have a property of type dictionary.

This dictionary has the following meaning: key = property id, value = a value (string or whatever).

I want to use the catalog to index and search for this kind of objects.

For each property I have an index in catalog.

Let's say the dictionary is {'field1' : 'value of field 1', 'field2': 'value of field2'}.

I also have 2 indexes named 'field1' and 'field2'.

The problem is that when the catalog tries to catalog my object doesn't find the properties 'field1' and 'field2' for my object !!!

So, I overwrite __getattr__ to tell it how to handle these properties

def __getattr__(self, name):

if name=='field1':

return self.dict['field1']

elif name=='field2':

return self.dict['field2']

else:

-- How do I tell him to execute the default ?????

I want to handle __getattr__ just for some special attributtes names
