Quoth Jonathan LaCour (2007-12-19 06:54): > pylons.c -> pylons.request.state > pylons.session -> pylons.request.session > pylons.g -> pylons.request.app_globals
Excuse my ignorance, but why can't all these just be attributes of the controller instance? An abstract base class provides properties to subclasses. The controller is instantiated per request, so is already thread-local. It can then be passed around as context to library methods instead of this fixation with module-globals. I thought the reasoning for ultra-short names is because of the tedium of passing context to the template namespace, but if you use the controller you could just pass it as 'this' or somesuch, and then merrily reference this.var, this.request, this.session, and even this.globals! a. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-devel" group.
