Try using getattr to get the object... heres a python script to do it a
little more cleanly:
import string
def create_folders(self):
path = '/a/b/c' # create a folder for each part of the string, nested.
for p in string.split(path, '/'):
if p != '':
self = create_folder(self, p)
return 'Done'
def create_folder(folder, id):
try: folder.manage_addFolder(id)
except: pass
new_folder = getattr(folder, id)
return new_folder
