External Method:
# threadFolder is a BTreeFolder2; viewCount is a
property
field on the BTreeFolder2
line 3227: threadFolder = self.unrestrictedTraverse(topFolder + forumId
+
'/' + threadId)
line 3228: threadFolder.manage_changeProperties({'viewCount':
threadFolder.viewCount+1})
OFS/PropertyManager.py
line 299: def manage_changeProperties(self, REQUEST=None, **kw):
...
line 317: if REQUEST:
line 318: message="Saved changes."
line 319: return self.manage_propertiesForm(self,REQUEST,
line 320:
manage_tabs_message=message)
I see: the "DTML" object is "manage_propertiesForm" and there is
no nameclash.
The "manage_changeProperties" method has a somewhat awkward behaviour.
In general, you should not pass it a positional argument but always
keyword arguments. If you pass a positional argument, it takes it
for "REQUEST" and usually does the wrong thing.
If you have the arguments in a dictionary "d", use
"manage_changeProperties(**d)".
Thanks Dieter, that makes sense and clears up the situation entirely!
Jonathan
