Hi!

I need to access acl_users of the parent in the constructor of a python product. Acquisition seems to fail in this situation.

Any hints?

The function for creating the Python Product looks like this:

def manage_addOOPServer(dispatcher, id=0, REQUEST=None): "Add a new OOPServer" oopserver=OOPServer(id) dispatcher._setObj(id, oopserver)

Please CC to me, I am not on the list.

get the object via obj = getattr(dispatcher,id) then it should have the acquisition cheers, bernd

When you think about it you will recognize that the object cannot be acquisition wrapped in the constructor. Or expressed differently: it cannot yet know its parent. You must pass the parent into the constructor (when you need it there) or delay your parent dependent operation until "manage_afterAdd". Be careful, though, as "manage_afterAdd" is called also during copy and import. Dieter
