Hi there
I find this a very awkward way to say "I want to add a new function to a
module"::
<monkey:patch
description="Add XML-RPC capability to SomeModule"
module="Products.SomeProduct.SomeModule"
original="readRemoteProject"
ignoreOriginal="True"
replacement=".SomeModule.readRemoteProject"
/>
Because there is no original, and if there were, I'm not ignoring the
original, I'm ignoring its *absence*.
Better would be::
<monkey:patch
description="Add XML-RPC capability to SomeModule"
module="Products.SomeProduct.SomeModule"
checkOriginal="False"
patch=".SomeModule.readRemoteProject"
/>
If I simply want to replace an existing function of the same name,
checking for the original::
<monkey:patch
description="Add XML-RPC capability to SomeModule"
module="Products.SomeProduct.SomeModule"
patch=".SomeModule.readRemoteProject"
/>
If I'm replacing an existing function, and for some reason the
'description' attribute is insufficient to describe what I'm doing and I
want to name my method something different::
<monkey:patch
description="Add XML-RPC capability to SomeModule"
module="Products.SomeProduct.SomeModule"
original="readRemoteProject"
patch=".SomeModule.readRemoteProject_myownspecialweirdname"
/>
Just a suggestion for the future .. if people aren't averse, I may
implement it if I find time.
