1.7 & executeFunction(node,string,list)

[P. van Kemenade]

Hi

we just checked out mmbase 1.7.0.20021204 (?)

apparently, in MMObjectBuilder.java, some code
has been improved; it's much better !

but the
executeFunction(MMObjectNode node, String function, List arguments)
is not backwards compatible to my builders, that use
executeFunction(MMObjectNode node, String function, String parameters)

If I do a getValue("somefunc(blah)") now, the request is forwarded
to getFunctionValue which forwards it to executeFunction(node,string,list)
which is not extended by my functions anymore.

Extending MMObjectBuilder is one of the cooliest features of mmbase ..
but if you need to rewrite your builders every other release, that plus
is down :-) I suppose someone just overlooked it ?

thanks,
*pike
