[Zope] Easy question, perhaps?

Oh, yeah, it was easy.  Serious brain freeze on my part... :-)

I simply forgot that 'getAttr' was not a method but a global function.

getAttr(Test, Test.docStorage) worked fine.

Subject: [Zope] Easy question, perhaps?


Hi,

I know I've done this before, but I cannot remember how.  I have a string
property on a folder named 'docStorage' that holds the name "Storage".
There is a folder named Storage off that is a subfolder. In other words:

Root
 |-Test
     |-Storage

 In a Python script, I can refer to the folder object by using:

    folder=Test.Storage

However, I want to be able to refer to it using the contents of the
docStorage property.  I have tried the following:


  folder=Test[Test.docStorage]
  folder=Test.getAttr(Test.DocStorage)

and a few others to no avail.  I get attribute errors on just about
everything I try.  Can someone help me out with the correct syntax?

Thanks,

Kevin
