[Zope-dev] TypeErrors during 'make test'

2004-02-13 Thread Evan Simpson
I'm getting several TypeErrors when I run 'make test' on the HEAD.  Each 
of them involves a call to cAccessControl's 'validate' with 'roles' set 
to a PermissionRole instance, complaining that it's not iterable.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Evan @ 4-am

These tests have been failing for weeks.

I'm not sure what the actual cause of the failure is.  The symption is
that validate() is being passed a single PermissionRole object as its
roles argument.  validate() expects roles to be a sequence and fails
with a TypeError iterable argument expected when it sees the
PermissionRole.

What isn't clear to me is if the argument should be a Python sequence
that contains a PermissionRole or if it should be an imPermissionsRole,
which is a sequence.  I don't understand the code well enough to know
which of these is more likely.
