===============


.. class:: TopicDefnDeserialString(ITopicDefnDeserializer)

   Deserialize a string containing Python source code defining a topic tree.
   The string has the same format as expected by TopicDefnDeserialModule.

   .. method:: __init__(self, source)

      This just saves the string into a temporary file created in
      os.getcwd(), and the rest is delegated to TopicDefnDeserialModule.
      The temporary file (module -- as well as its byte-compiled
      version) will be deleted when the doneIter() method is called.


   .. method:: doneIter(self)

      Called automatically by TopicDefnProvider once
      it considers the iteration completed. Override this only if
      deserializer needs to take action, such as closing a file.


   .. method:: getDefinedTopics(self)


   .. method:: getNextTopic(self)

      Get the next topic definition available from the data. The return
      must be an instance of TopicDefn. Must return None when no topics
      are left.


   .. method:: getTreeDoc(self)

      Get the docstring for the topic tree.


   .. method:: resetIter(self)

      Called by the TopicDefnProvider if it needs to
      restart the topic iteration. Override this only if special action needed,
      such as resetting a file pointer to beginning of file.
