Re: [Zope] how can I use the python set-type in pythonscripts ?

I did a

allow_type(type(set))

This should be "allow_type(set)".

in the __init__ of my product. But when I use it in a Python script I get global name 'set' is not defined.

Allowing a type does not automatically mean that it gets available in the builtin namespace for untrusted code. I would do the following: Define a module, say "importable", which imports all objects you want to make available to untrusted code. Declare this module importable via "allow_module(importable)". Provide (e.g. in the module) all "allow_type" you want. Import your resources in your untrusted code. An example of this approach is "Products.PythonScripts.standard"). -- Dieter
