Sometimes it's fine, sometimes it's not. For example, when methods are added dynamically, it's really a pain to investiguate because, before to read and understand the code, you need to know which code to read. When you have a lot of polymorphism and dynamic behavior, it's even quite difficult. For the problem I'm speaking about - LDAP, there is no official status : old documentation has disappeared (is it deliberate or is it an error ?) some blog post say "here is how to work with LDAP", a thread is giving a status like "it should work, except is some cases"... this is quite diffuse information. I agree that if you know exactly what you want to do, and how it should work, reading the code is enough. But if you have at least a small piece of stuff to learn, it become really hard. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
