Description Martin Vidner 2007-09-06 13:32:22 UTC

Currently one must write:
  ycp.run("UI", "AskForExistingDirectory", "/", "Where Is My Home?")
instead of the natural
  UI.AskForExistingDirectory("/", "Where Is My Home?")

It is because a YaST Namespace lacks a method to enumerate all its functions.
That will be a simple addition to yast2-core, not affecting other code.

yast2-python-bindings is currently a leaf package.

Comment 1 Martin Vidner 2007-09-06 15:51:31 UTC

I have submitted yast2-core-2.15.11 with a new API SymbolTable::forEach.
Now y-p-b can use it.

Comment 2 Jozef Uhliarik 2007-09-14 16:24:22 UTC

this is fixed in new version of yast2-python-bindings 2.15.3
