[Twisted-web] Making a Page instance a proxy to another one

[Michal Pasternak]

Hi,

I need to have a Page instance to work as a proxy to another one - so url
"somesite/somepage/child1" will return not "child1" of "somepage", but
"child1" of "someOtherPage". What's the easiest and most correct method to
do that? I've had some partial success with getDynamicChild:

	def child_(self, req):
		return self.getDynamicChild("", req)
		
	def getDynamicChild(self, name, req):
		if name="":
			return self.proxyPage
		else:
			return maybeDeferred(self.proxyPage.locateChild, [name], req).addCallback(lambda x: x[0])
	
... basically, this works okay for child_* methods in proxyPage, but gives
wrong results for formless child mixins (I haven't tested
proxyPage.getDynamicChild).

I cannot just replicate child_ methods of proxyPage in Page, because I have
no idea, what child methods proxyPage has (it's a dynamically generated page
instance).

Help! :^)
