[Zope-dev] oh boy [id,getId() madness]

[Romain Slootmaekers]

Yo,
I have an error in this code fragment:

-------------  fragment ----------
for childObject in container.objectValues():
     id=childObject.getId()
     childObject2=container[id] # sometimes gives a KeyError ????
     #...
------------- /fragment ----------

So it means that there are contained objects with an getId member that 
returns something different than the key that is used for these objects 
in the container object.

As it turns out, I indeed have such objects in my ZODB, and they cause 
all kinds of problems (fe, you can't rename them with the management 
interface)

The questions are:
   - has anyone else experienced this ?
   - what could be causing this ?

TIA,

Romain.
