There's 2 issues. I think a documentation change in mod_python where it
states that a file object is returned to say a file-like object instead
is one. That's easy.
The other is that there isn't an easy way to tell whether what you've
got in the field is a file or not, because no matter what you've got
something that "looks" like a file. Under the current documentation you
could have tried isinstance(field.file, file), but that's clearly not
the right thing to do since TemporaryFile doesn't necessarily return an
actual file object. I accept that, but there needs to be an easy way to
know what type the Field object value is -- string or file. Checking
filename or disposition is obtuse, and there may not necessarily be a
file name even if you get a file.
So that's my problem, or at least that's where the conversation has led
me. Is there an easy way to figure out what you've got other than
process of elimination?
Thanks,
Nick
