Documentation String

Provide object specifications

These combine information for the object and for it's classes.

For example:

>>> from zope.interface import Interface
>>> class I1(Interface): pass
...
>>> class I2(Interface): pass
...
>>> class I3(Interface): pass
...
>>> class I31(I3): pass
...
>>> class I4(Interface): pass
...
>>> class I5(Interface): pass
...
>>> class A(object): implements(I1)
...
>>> class B(object): __implemented__ = I2
...
>>> class C(A, B): implements(I31)
...
>>> c = C()
>>> directlyProvides(c, I4)
>>> [i.getName() for i in providedBy(c)]
['I4', 'I31', 'I1', 'I2']
>>> [i.getName() for i in providedBy(c).flattened()]
['I4', 'I31', 'I3', 'I1', 'I2', 'Interface']
>>> int(I1 in providedBy(c))
1
>>> int(I3 in providedBy(c))
0
>>> int(providedBy(c).extends(I3))
1
>>> int(providedBy(c).extends(I31))
1
>>> int(providedBy(c).extends(I5))
0
>>> class COnly(A, B): implementsOnly(I31)
...
>>> class D(COnly): implements(I5)
...
>>> c = D()
>>> directlyProvides(c, I4)
>>> [i.getName() for i in providedBy(c)]
['I4', 'I5', 'I31']
>>> [i.getName() for i in providedBy(c).flattened()]
['I4', 'I5', 'I31', 'I3', 'Interface']
>>> int(I1 in providedBy(c))
0
>>> int(I3 in providedBy(c))
0
>>> int(providedBy(c).extends(I3))
1
>>> int(providedBy(c).extends(I1))
0
>>> int(providedBy(c).extends(I31))
1
>>> int(providedBy(c).extends(I5))
