Globals.InitializeClass() does not read the source to your modules. You would need some sort of "lint" tool to perform the checking you describe. Why not try to implement a simple case of the error-correcting system that you describe? You might want to extend an existing lint tool such as PyChecker, to take account of conventions used in Zope products. http://pychecker.sourceforge.net/ -- Steve Alexander _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
