[Zope-dev] Adding data attributes to a pluggable brain?

[Dr. Peer Griebel]

Hi,

I just started using pluggable brains. The first thing I observed is
that changes to the brain class are only seen in Zope after a restart of
Zope. This differs to the behaviour of external methods. For newbies
this can be quite irritating.

But now to my question: How can I add a data attribute to my brain?
Whenever I try to say 
	self.attr=42
in a method of the brain class I get an Attribute Error. I can use a
construct like self.__dict__['attr']=42. This seems to work. But is it
the right way?

Thank you for your help!
