[Zope-dev] initializing objects in ZPatterns

Hi!

I've now tried

WHEN OBJECT ADDED CALL
  self.propertysheets.data.manage_changeProperties(company_address=self.company_address)

which gives me some Unauthorized error on the method call.

(when doing it manually in some dtml method after newItem() it works ok, though.
And I am logged in as Manager..)

Sometimes I wish Zope would print more about the details of such an response,
e.g. which permissions might be missing..

Anyway, I will keep experimenting with it (also tried to subclass directly from
DataSkin, to override some method which create the company address) but then
I noticed that it always needs to be a ZClass (except I would also implement my
own Rack, I guess..)
Wonder when the basic app will be running.. ;-)

ok, nice evening everybody! :)
