it works, but I'd rather use this:
factory = IFooFactory(myService, configurationObject)
This is a long and terrible road you're about to start down. It's hard
for me to explain exactly why it's so painful, but trust me, it is.
What you're doing now, passing out-of-band arguments to the IFooFactory
adapter, whose concrete type you are *not supposed to know* at that
point in the control flow, is bad. But trying to force adaptation to
become full-fledged multimethods is worse. If you want multimethods, I
believe PEAK provides a package that implements them.
If you want to keep doing what you're doing, you should do this:
factory = MyServiceFooFactory(myService)
factory.configureBar("some value")
i.e. don't ask for an adaptation which might give you an object without
a "bar" attribute, just create the concrete type that does what you need
based on the type of myService and configure it with explicitly
documented methods. Although if I misunderstand the spec of
"IFooFactory" and it *does* include a bar attribute, nevermind.
If you want something more magical and adapter-ish, them maybe you want
this:
IFooFactory(ConfigurationObject(myService, bar="some value"))
i.e. by the time you are getting around to the IFooFactory adaptation,
you should have an object that fully provides enough information that
the concrete FooFactory adapter type can be fully initialized when it is
created.
In order to implement this, registerAdapter would have to be able to
take a
tuple of interfaces, like this:
components.registerAdapter(
AdaptToFactory,
(IFooService, IConfigurationDescriptor),
IFooFactory)
would that feature make sense? If so, I'll file an issue right now :-)
Unfortunately, much as I've been encouraging people to file tickets
lately, no :). I don't think it makes sense.
