Hi,
Hi. Your mail client has decided that you are responding to a message in a thread about Twisted Web. It probably did this because you had that message selected when you told it to compose mail, or because you selected reply rather than compose. Since your message is not actually about Twisted Web, this is confusing and undesirable. In the future, please pay more attention to what you are asking your mail client to do, so that it is easier to find and understand the question you are asking.
I call your attention to:
This was quoted in the Docs on the TwistedMatrix web site.
Persistent Data in the Factory
Since the Protocol instance is recreated each time the connection is made, the client needs some way to keep track of data that should be persisted. In the case of ircLogBot.py: (LogBot.log() just logs the data to the file object stored in LogBot.file)
it references a LogBot.log() call.... but I checked in ircLogBot.py and there is NO log() method, nor is there one in any of the other classes it inherits from.
Would it be too much of a bother if I were to ask anyone about this descrepancy?
Not at all. It is true that the class has no log method, however, if you examine the connectionMade method:
def connectionMade(self): irc.IRCClient.connectionMade(self) self.logger = MessageLogger(open(self.factory.filename, "a")) self.log = self.logger.log self.log("[connected at %s]" % time.asctime(time.localtime(time.time())))
you will see that instances of the class bind method from a *different* to that name, allowing users of the class to use the method as if it were defined by the LogBot class itself.
