[Zope3-dev] python2.2 and Persistent, Acquisition etc.

[Magnus Heino]

Hi!

Just installed python2.2 and the Zope3x-branch, and I noticed that some 
things that didnt work with python2.1, now works :)

So, the question is; Am i supposed to be able to do this, or am I doing 
BAD things? ;)

from Persistence import Persistent
from threading import Thread

class foo(Persistent, Thread):
  def __init__(self):
    Thread.__init__(self)



And the same with Acquisition, 

class foo(Implicit, Thread):

This failed completely in 2.1, now it works. You could use 
start_new_thread then, but then the thread self wasnt wrapped in 
acquisition.

So, is it ok to do this? Is it python2.2 that enables this, or are 
there major changes done to the ExtensionClasses too? If so, could I 
consider it stable?

Thanks!
