[Grok-dev] Deleting Container items

[Tim Cook]

Okay, what is wrong with this code?

I have a grok.Container named 'ar'

I want to be able to completely empty it at certain times.

When I execute the following code it deletes exactly half of the
contents.  For example if I have 4 items it deletes 2.  If I execute it
again it deletes 1.  Finally on the 3rd execution it deletes the last
one.


class Emptyar(grok.View):
    grok.context(oship)
    
    def render(self):
        atnames=self.context['ar'].keys()

        for x in atnames:
            del self.context['ar'][x]


I even tried self.context['ar'].__delattr__(x) and had exactly (not
surprising I suppose) the same effect.

Thanks,
Tim
