It's got code which isn't used (such as the schema default) and it doesn't work (MammothSize needs to inherit from grok.Adapter). Perhaps a more simple example could be used ... but for now I've just removed the example. I also *attempted* to clarify the usage of grok.adapts() with:</div><div><br></div><div><div>In the case of a simple adapter which only requires a single object</div><div>for adapation, the :func:`grok.context` directive is used to declare</div><div>the interface or class the adapter is for. It is only necessary to use</div><div>:func:`grok.adapts` to declare the adapation requirements for a multi adapter.</div></div><div><br></div><div>But for a simple adapter, one can:</div><div><br></div><div> - not declare the context when it's unambigous</div><div> - declare the context when it is ambigous, or delcare it for the sake of declartion with grok.context()</div><div> - use grok.adapts() instead of grok.context()</div><div><br></div><div>So maybe the text should be updated to reflect that, or is there a strong enough style conses that a particular method is used for registering simple adapters (e.g. using grok.context over grok.adapts)?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div></body></html>
