No, you can't really replace the default URLResolver without changing any code in Django - lines 100-101 in django/core/handlers/base.py (http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/core/handlers/base.py). And even if you did, you would only be given the path_info of the request, not the entire request object itself. Your only option is middleware. > (Why is Django URL resolver not implemented as a Middleware class?) Besides what Brian said, it is probably for the same reason why regex is the only way to specify URLs - there wasn't a need for anything else when it was first designed, and given the current solution works for nearly all cases, there have been minimal attempts to change it. At some point, I'm considering rewriting the entire URL resolution/reversal system to make it more modular, and submitting it as a patch. (I bumped up against another limitation of it and had to hack around it by changing Django code.) Don't hold your breath for inclusion in a Django release any time soon though; as such a critical part of Django, it'll probably be a while before it makes it into trunk. > Input appreciated. > > Thanks. > > /Martin > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Django users" group. > To post to this group, send email to django-us...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > django-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/django-users?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
