yes - here's what you need to know: every request that comes into the server, and then kicks off a we2py thread starts in main.py, which parses and finds the appropriate applicaition, controller and function being requested. Then, to set up the environment for the request (so the controller can do what It needs, e.g. refer to appropriate tables, have db connections available, etc.) main runs the files in the application's model folder, and calls the appropriate controller function with this environment.
Since the files in models are executed in alphabetical order, if you want to ensure that your "global" settings are available for the model files also, a filename in controllers such as "0.py" or "0_setup.py" (that's a zero) will accomplish this. Hope this helps. - Yarko On Wed, Jul 22, 2009 at 5:18 PM, Bottiger <[email protected]> wrote: > > And that is my question. Where can I put it so it is a globally > accessable variable?
