[Zope] convert a String ...
Hi, how is it possible to convert a string into my own zclass type? I get a String from a form and want to do some operation like string.manage_addFile(... on it. So what to do ??? Perhaps some out there is able to help ...

Re: [Zope] convert a String ...
To "convert" a string to an object, you use the getitem() function.
## example 1:
Your: dtml-var last_name
#returns:
Your: Peter Bengtsson
## example 2:
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('var_to_go_and_get','last_name')"
Your: dtml-var "_.getitem(var_to_go_and_get)"
# returns:
Your: Peter Bengtsson
There's more
You could also do this:
dtml-var "_[var_to_go_and_get]" or dtml-var "_['last_name']"
The different between _['foo'] and _.getitem('foo') is tricky.

But such a type would probably not have a "manage_addFile" method anyway. Do you mean "Z Instance" rather than "zclass type"?
