As explained in comment #1, this should be changed to def foo(...., context=None,....): # you should add this test only if the context is actually used if context is None: context={} .... (This bug originally proposed the other way round hence the "nope" in comment #1.) (xmo) Complements of information: * The test should be `context is None` rather than `not context`: the caller could provide an empty dict argument {} and expect to have data in it after the call, if a test is done using `not context` an empty dict will match and the function will be creating a brand new context. * The test should *only ever* performed when the current function fetches data from the context. If you don't do anything with the context but forward it to other functions and methods (e.g. read() or create()), no need to test for anything. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openerp-dev-gtk Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openerp-dev-gtk More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
