Detailed Description

 This represents a sequence value read from a contents.xml
file, either from the <contents> or the <package> section.  It's
represented as series of dotted integers in the xml file, and
stored internally as a tuple of integers.

It may be incremented, which increments only the last integer in
the series; or it may be compared with another SeqValue, which
compares all of the integers componentwise.

__cmp__()

__cmp__	(		self,
			other )

 Compares to another seq value. 

__gt__()

__gt__	(		self,
			other )

__lt__()

loadXml()

loadXml	(		self,
			xelement,
			attribute = 'seq' )

 Reads the seq from the indicated XML element.  Returns
true if loaded, false if not given or if there was an
error. 

set()

set	(		self,
			value )

 Sets the seq from the indicated value of unspecified
type. 

setFromString()

setFromString	(		self,
			value )

 Sets the seq from the indicated string of dot-separated
integers.  Raises ValueError on error. 

setFromTuple()

setFromTuple	(		self,
			value )

 Sets the seq from the indicated tuple of integers. 

storeXml()

storeXml	(		self,
			xelement,
			attribute = 'seq' )

 Adds the seq to the indicated XML element.
