[Erp5-dev] convertCurrency() question

[Jacek Medrzycki]

Hi.

There is a method in Products/ERP5/Documents/Currency.py:

def convertCurrency(self, quantity, to_currency):
if to_currency is self:
return quantity
return quantity

What is the purpose of the method? Should it be overwritten?

How one should carry currency conversion?


TIA.
Jacek

Thank you very much.

So convertCurrency is now obsolete and is not intended to be used?

Perhaps it would be better to remove it from the code? (it shows up in
the Inspection Report in ERP5 web interface and it is slightly confusing).
Or it it still there for backward compatibility issues?
