I registered a local utility through generic setup and then updated the __init__ code

  • 0

I registered a local utility through generic setup and then updated the __init__ code later. I was surprised to found that the object is not reinitialized when I restart the instance. The utility was just a simple object that subclass the general object class.

How can I make the Utility initialize again ?

**Edit: After see Martijn Pieters’s explanation I understand that local utility is always persistent. So how can I delete it and then readd it later ?

    Since the comments answered my question already, this is a little sum up so I can close the question:

    • Local Utilities are always persistent.
    • (Base on my experience) In Plone 4 uninstalling the product won’t remove installed Local Utilities by default (I remembered it once did)
    • You can user pypi.python.org/pypi/wildcard.fixpersistentutilities/1.1b4 a try for uninstalling Local Utilities.

    Thanks Martijn Pieters and vangheem
