I'll go back to lurking now.
Yes you are right, that was the reason I didn't define the __init__ method in the interface. But I still think a IPagelet isn't a IContentProvider by default. Of corse another class can be defined as IContentProvider and IPagelet. Such a class whould then provide a different __init__ method then the pagelet does right now. Thomas; Should we implement a z3c.form/z3c.pagelet package? There we could support z3c.form base classes built up on pagelets. Probably called z3c.formpagelet which contains IPageletForm, IPageletAddForm etc. Regards Roger Ineichen > Regards > > Jacob > > -- > Jacob Holm > CTO > Improva ApS > > _______________________________________________ > Zope3-dev mailing list > Zope3-dev@zope.org > Unsub: > http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/dev%40projekt01.ch > > _______________________________________________ Zope3-dev mailing list Zope3-dev@zope.org Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
