hi all,

I changed the attribute 'with' in /home/zope/ztrunk26/lib/python/RestrictedPython/Utilities.py to 'wit' and I ran the tests in python2.4 and I got the following result.

Running tests at level 1 Running unit tests: Running:

Ran 285 tests with 0 failures and 0 errors in 6.587 seconds. Running Testing.ZopeTestCase.layer.ZopeLite tests: Set up Testing.ZopeTestCase.layer.ZopeLite in 0.000 seconds. Running:

Ran 1 tests with 0 failures and 0 errors in 0.064 seconds. Tearing down left over layers: Tear down Testing.ZopeTestCase.layer.ZopeLite in 0.000 seconds. Total: 286 tests, 0 failures, 0 errors in 1.044 seconds.

Can anybody tell me whether this implies it is backward compatible in python2.4?

with regards

Bristow

Hi everybody,

During the porting of Zope2 to Python2.6, I am stuck with a syntax error in the module AccessControl, which is given below. def reorder(s, with=None, without=()): ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax in line 56 of /home/zope/ztrunk26/lib/python/RestrictedPython/Utilities.py. The same code when run in python2.4 and python2.5 didn't give any syntax errors. Can anybody suggest the reason for this syntax error in python2.6. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
