[Zope3-dev] Re: emit ObjectModifiedEvent when object changed and zodb noticed?

I mean, if a non-Zope object has changed, why should it have to think about emitting events? Objects don't send events about themselves. It's the code that does things to objects that has the responsibility of sending the right event. E.g. if your code (e.g. a view) modifies an object, it has to send the event. Zope's form machineries do this already, btw. Philipp ___ Zope3-dev mailing list Zope3-dev@zope.org Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com

I would say that, in general, "view code" should be emitting the events, rather than content objects. In any case, could we do anything clever to do with event emitting when objects are committed to the zodb? No. Agreed. Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Python Powered!
