If it's in a content type's class, why not:

Just using self as the context should be fine.

mm, currently getting None back so I guess I'm not wrapping things
properly.
This is a skeleton bit of code:
class ContentType(PortalContent):
"""A content type with access to an external database"""
def __init__(self, id):
self.id = id
DA = getattr(self, 'MyDA', None)
#self.conn = DA() # not working at the moment because DA is None
Is it wrong to try and do this in my __init__ ? Regarding your other
suggestion: yes, I probably will factor this out into a utility once
I've worked out how to access the DA!!!
