[Pywps-devel] ComplexInput (instance) nature

[Jorge de Jesus]

Hi Jachym et al.

I am a bit confused with the nature of the ComplexInput.

Considering the following process

 # init process
         WPSProcess.__init__(self,
                             identifier="crossvalidationprocess", #the
same as the file name
                             title="K-fold CrossValidation Process",
                             version = "0.1",
                             storeSupported = "true",
                             statusSupported = "false",
                            abstract="boooo",
                            grassLocation =False)
            #Process inputs
         self.DataIn =
self.addComplexInput(identifier="ObservationCollection",
                                               title = "dummy",
                                               abstract="boo2")
         self.Kfold=self.addLiteralInput(identifier = "kfold",
                                            title = "dummy2",
                                            default="10",
                                            minOccurs=0,
                                            allowedValues=[1, 100]
                                            )
         self.ResultOut=self.addComplexOutput(identifier="CVResult",
                                           title="foo")

In the execute I need to access the raw xml input so I can parse the
inputs and to some calculations

Doing the following in the execute function of the process:

XMLData=self.DataIn.getValue()

The XMLData will be a small str object with something like:
pywpsInputBvg3ir, it is not even an instance but a str type object

If i do something like:
     self.ResultOut.setValue(self.getInputValue('ObservationCollection'))

I get the result output with the XML content of the data input, and
things seem ok


Could someone give me an indication on how to access the  raw  XML
content ?! or what is going on with this  pywpsInputBvg3ir string ?!

Also, I am not familiar with the version numbering policy but shouldn't
the wps.py file in the SNV have

__version__="3.0.1rc1-svn"

Thanks in advance
Jorge

PS: I att the request file
