[Zope] manage_pasteObjects question

[Palermo, Tom]

I'm trying to do the cut in one script and the paste in another script. It's
my understanding that REQUEST is an optional parameter to
manage_cutObjects(). Passing REQUEST will set a cookie, __cp. __cp is the
clipboard data. Later when I try to do manage_pasteObjects() from another
script, I always get a "cookie data is truncated" message regardless of how
I try to pass in the clipboard data. I should be able to just do:
context.manage_pasteObjects(context.cb_dataItems()) 

That doesn't work. I still get the "cookie data is truncated" message. I get
the same message if I do:
context.manage_pasteObjects(context.REQUEST) 

I know that there are, in fact, objects on the clipboard because I can just
do:
print context.cb_dataItems()
return printed

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. It seems like you can have cut and paste
happen in separate scripts. Is that not true?

Thanks,
Tom

Usually, this looks like:

	 obj_info = XXX.manage_cutObjects(...)
	 YYY.manage_pasteObjects(obj_info)

Do not know, why in hell you pass in a crippled request...

  You should be aware that "req['__cp']" is not a request object...
