Hi David,
 
In my last post, I wrote that I tried calling manage_pasteObjects a variety of ways:
context.manage_pasteObjects(context.REQUEST)
context.manage_pasteObjects(context.cb_dataItems())
 
as well as the original:
context.manage_pasteObjects(cb_copy_data=context.cb_dataItems(),REQUEST=req['__cp'])
 
All 3 of these attemps results in the eInvalid exception gettting raised by manage_pasteObjects( ). req['__cp'] is a reference to the cookie that gets set when you place something on the clipboard. I was trying to grab a specific piece of the REQUEST instead of the whole thing. Does context.manage_pasteObjects(context.REQUEST) need to be written as: context.manage_pasteObjects(REQUEST=context.REQUEST)?
 
It's kind of a moot point now anyway. I'm using some SESSION variables now to store the ids of te objects I want to cut and the path of their container so I can do the cut and paste from a single script. Not sure if this is good or not but it's working for me now. It's one of those times when I just need something to work.

I'm trying to do the cut in one script and the paste in another script. It's
my understanding that REQUEST is an optional parameter to
manage_cutObjects(). Passing REQUEST will set a cookie, __cp. __cp is the
clipboard data. Later when I try to do manage_pasteObjects() from another
script, I always get a "cookie data is truncated" message regardless of how
I try to pass in the clipboard data. I should be able to just do:
context.manage_pasteObjects(context.cb_dataItems()) 

That doesn't work. I still get the "cookie data is truncated" message. I get
the same message if I do:
context.manage_pasteObjects(context.REQUEST) 

I know that there are, in fact, objects on the clipboard because I can just
do:
print context.cb_dataItems()
return printed

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. It seems like you can have cut and paste
happen in separate scripts. Is that not true?

Thanks,
Tom

I am trying to do a manage_cutObjects in one script and then a 
manage_pasteObjects.
    

Usually, this looks like:

	 obj_info = XXX.manage_cutObjects(...)
	 YYY.manage_pasteObjects(obj_info)

  
When I execute this line from my pasteObjects python
script:
context.manage_pasteObjects(cb_copy_data=context.cb_dataItems(),REQUEST
=req[
'__cp'])
    

Do not know, why in hell you pass in a crippled request...

  You should be aware that "req['__cp']" is not a request object...

Tom,

You didnt respond to Dieter's remarks .... so its unclear where to go with this.

You coded:
    context.manage_pasteObjects(cb_copy_data=context.cb_dataItems(),REQUEST=req['__cp'])

What is the last parameter doing?  REQUEST=req['__cp'] ?  The manage_pastObjects expects a REQUEST object, e.g. REQUEST=context.REQUEST.

Did you try this?  

David
