[Zope] Creating a class in an external method

[Shaw, Howard]

It looks to me like the python is the problem. Unless I am mistaken, you
either need to say
> 	thisapp=licapp.licapp()
or 
	from Shared.bend import licapp
. 

Good luck... and search the list archives for discussion of using the
python debugger in combo with Zope development.
