Tangent 1 ----------- This URI topic is somewhat related to how contexts/packages are loaded into WebKit. The current implementation of ServletFactory relies on the 'imp' module and thus can't take any advantage of custom import hooks. As a result, you have to create a new servlet factory for .tmpl files, .psp files, etc., in addition to any import hooks you've written. The code in ServletFactory.importAsPackage() and ServletFactory._importModuleFromDirectory could be refactored to allow it to work with import hooks and remove the need for a separate ServletFactory for each extension. It should be possible to use a single ServletFactory for .py, .psp, and .tmpl servlets once the refactoring has been done and an import hook has been written for .psp files. Tangent 2 ----------- The current implementation of psp doesn't allow one psp servlet to seemlessly inherit from another psp servlet. An import hook would make this possible. Ditto for .tmpl files. I've written an import hook for .tmpl files (using Gordon McMillan's ui.py rather than ihooks or imputils, which are both badly broken). See ImportManager.py and ImportHooks.py in Cheetah's CVS. It should be fairly simple to extend this to work with PSP as well. Anyone interested?
