[Zope3-Users] problems with contains and containers

[Lorenzo Gil Sanchez]

Just for the record, the following implementation works:

from persistent import Persistent
from zope.schema import Field
from zope.app.container.interfaces import IContainer, IContained
from zope.app.container.constraints import contains, containers
from zope.app.container.contained import Contained
from zope.app.container.btree import BTreeContainer
from zope.interface import implements, Interface
from zope.app.container.constraints import ContainerTypesConstraint
from zope.app.container.constraints import ItemTypePrecondition

class IMyContent(Interface):
    pass

class IMyContainer(IContainer):
    def __setitem__(name, object):
        pass

    __setitem__.precondition = ItemTypePrecondition(IMyContent)

class IMyContentContained(IContained):
    __parent__ = Field(
        constraint = ContainerTypesConstraint(IMyContainer))

class MyContent(Persistent, Contained):
    implements(IMyContent, IMyContentContained)

class MyContainer(BTreeContainer):
    implements(IMyContainer)
