[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-127?page=comments#action_12443889 ] Jim Gallacher commented on MODPYTHON-127: -----------------------------------------
We need to make sure we address this in the unittests as well. Should we have tests for the additional options? > Use namespace for mod_python PythonOption settings. > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MODPYTHON-127 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-127 > Project: mod_python > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: core > Affects Versions: 3.3 > Reporter: Graham Dumpleton > Assigned To: Graham Dumpleton > Fix For: 3.3 > > > In the interests of avoiding name clashes, I want to push that where > mod_python uses its own PythonOption settings, that they use a namespace. For > example: > PythonOption mod_python.session_cookie_name ... > PythonOption mod_python.ApplicationPath ... > PythonOption mod_python.session_dbm ... > PythonOption mod_python.session_fast_cleanup ... > etc .... > If appropriate for mod_python, multiple levels of naming should be used. For > example, "session_fast_cleanup" is actually related to FileSession, so > perhaps it should be: > PythonOption mod_python.Session.cookie_name ... > PythonOption mod_python.Session.application_path ... > PythonOption mod_python.DbmSession.database ... > PythonOption mod_python.FileSession.fast_cleanup ... > Thus, class name is interjected as second level in name. Also would like to > see final attribute name settle on lower case with underscore between > distinct words. > We can support old names in mod_python for the time being but should > deprecate them. > Any third party package developers should be strongly encouraged to also put > any of their own PythonOption settings names in their own unique namespace. > Mailing list thread where this was first proposed, and in case there were > followups of interest, was: > http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/mod_python/2006-February/020213.html -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
