i'm sorry that doesn't make sense to me. nonetheless, i tried it with
different variable names, as:
if 1:
ss = Storage(s='main')
ss.happy = 'yes happy'
print("1:::", ss, type(ss))
s1 = repr(ss)
print("2:::", s1, type(s1))
s2 = eval(s1)
print("3:::", s2, type(s2))
and i still got the same error:
1::: <Storage {'s': 'main', 'happy': 'yes happy'}> <class
'gluon.storage.Storage'>
2::: <Storage {'s': 'main', 'happy': 'yes happy'}> <class 'str'>
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./web2py_Storage.py", line 17, in <module>
s2 = eval(s1)
File "<string>", line 1
<Storage {'s': 'main', 'happy': 'yes happy'}>
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
there are so many convertors like to and from json, wouldn't it make sense
to and from string for storage? thank you again, lucas
