[Zope-dev] Who uses request.getPositionalArguments()?

[Wolfgang Schnerring]

Hello,

I've stumbled over this by accident, but it seems that
getPositionalArguments() in zope.publisher.base.BaseRequest
always returns an empty value (at least, there are no tests in which
it has a non-empty value), and it is also not overridden by any of the
request subclasses in zope.publisher.

I still haven't quite wrapped my head around the whole publishing
machinery, but this strikes me as a little strange, nonetheless.

Could somebody enlighten me why this is so?

Thanks,
Wolfgang
