Thanks for fixing this yourself and merging. Sorry, I didn't get
around to extend things myself.

Thanks.

Leading *and* trailing double underscores imply "special", rather than private.

I suggest including these in the interface.

Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Ok. I've gone ahead and made a branch for this at:

svn+ssh://svn.zope.org/repos/main/ZODB/branches/hannosch-ibroken

It's a single changeset: http://svn.zope.org/ZODB/?rev=107467&view=rev

I only specified the custom exception thrown by the __setattr__ in the
interface. Everything else is private double underscore methods. I
wasn't sure if any of those should really be specified formally.

Thanks for considering to merge this :)

Happy new year,
Hanno

+1. although it shouldn't be an empty interface.

[ZODB-Dev] An interface for broken objects?

2009-12-31 Thread Hanno Schlichting
Hi.

We currently have a package called "zope.broken" whose entire real content is:

import zope.interface

class IBroken(zope.interface.Interface):
"""Marker interface for broken objects
"""

This is used for example by zope.container, which won't try to set
__name__ and __parent__ pointers on these objects.

Is this something that could be put into the ZODB itself and have the
ZODB.broken.Broken class directly implement this interface?

Thanks,
Hanno
