"dm.pdb" is on "PyPI". And your intuition is right. "zpdb" rebinds "pdb.set_trace" overriding the name "Pdb". Now, I also understand how the "TypeError" results: "doctest" has replaced the function "set_trace" by an instance method. Rebinding unwraps the "InstanceMethod" and operates only on the enclosed function -- the implicit instance argument is lost. -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [email protected] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
