There are a lot of complexities that can arise out of Acquisition, Wrappers, and so on, that really require a deep understanding of exactly HOW acquisition works, versus what it usually does. The other problem with __getattr__ is interfacing with Persistence. ZODB handles it now, but it wasn't all that long ago that it couldn't. But with Acquisition - once you go beyond "fair use", there's not enough Scotch in the world to kill the brain cramp. :) _______________________________________________ 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 )
