I'm currently using a very similar approach for class-based views except in my request() implementation I use the request.method and look at self for an attribute with the method name uppercased. if it isn't found an HttpResponseNotAllowed is returned and the list of permited methods is built from checking the view instance for the known methods. Here's an example of the constructor and request implementations: http://gist.github.com/605801 . I have simplified my code for clarity so I may have introduced some bugs. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
