RE: [Zope] manage_pasteObjects question
Hi David, I reviewed OFS.CopySupport.py which is how I knew that eInvalid exception is being raised. I also called manage_cutObjects with the REQUEST as you mention. That's what is weird about this whole thing. I know that I had clipboard data and the __cp cookie is set. Everytime I tried to do the paste, I'd get the "cookie truncated" message. You're right about the documentation. As with most Zope documentation, it's not that great. Lately, I go straight to the source. I find I learn more that way.

[Zope] manage_pasteObjects question
I am trying to do a manage_cutObjects in one script and then a manage_pasteObjects. When I execute this line from my pasteObjects python script: context.manage_pasteObjects(cb_copy_data=context.cb_dataItems(),REQUEST=req['__cp']) I get a message back: "The data in the clipboard could not be read, possibly due to cookie data being truncated by your web browser. Try copying fewer objects." I'm not sure why this happens. This doesn't happen from the ZMI so it's something to do with how I'm calling context.manage_pasteObjects in the above snippet. I also had my pasteObjects script return the clipboard data: print context.cb_dataItems() return printed which returns: [] So, I know I've got clipboard data but for some reason, manage_pasteObjects thinks I don't and raises eInvalid on line 143 of OFS.CopySupport.py. Any ideas?
