I'm using it in production, yes. >> The problem here seems to be that BaseController.__call__ is not >> called at all.

Do I need to do a super(EmbeddedtracController, > self).__call__(...) here? Not exactly, because you're not doing the superclass code and then something before or after it. You're doing something in the middle of the superclass code, and you can't call part of a parent method, break, execute your code, and then continue the parent method. But you can override ._dispatch_call(), which happens to be the part of code you want to change. I've heard things pro and con about super(). The consensus seems to be, if you know which superclass method to call, call it directly rather than using super(). -- Mike Orr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
