[Zope] incosistant behaviour.
Greetings, I am experimenting with my first ZClass. I have inherited from Renderable, and XMLDocument. I have added a few DTML Methods, including a 'render' method. Testing has been all well and good, with pages displaying predictably when I hit the View tag, but if I hit View in the folder, which contains one of my classes as index_html, it doesn't display correctly. My class relies on being able to find methods in itself (using _.hasattr() ), but the results are as if it cannot find any. I thought this might be because render is a dtml Method, so I tried it as a DTML Document. Now when trying to view it, it asks for authentication, and denies anyone (even the superuser). What am I doing wrong? Shouldn't a ZClass member method be able to reference other members in the same ZClass? -- Have a better one, Curtis. ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Ok. This only vaguely begins to address your issues, but I went ahead and added searching Zope.org with Google to the "search" page- the one you get for clicking on the "search" link at the top of the page. For example, I searched for dtml-+in (had to add the +, because "in" is a stop-word) and got loads of relevant results. Hope this helps a tiny bit.

RE: [Zope] Subclassing from Custom Python Classes
This is a good question that I'm not sure of the completely technically correct answer to. But here's my best shot. Part of what composes a "Zope object" is that the object inherits characteristics from the "Persistence.Persistent" class. This base class overrides Python's normal __setattr__ and __getattr__ instance methods. When a persistent object is queried for a subobject (e.g. its __getattr__ is called), it does some magic to pull that subobject out of persistent storage. Likewise, when you attach an attribute to an object (e.g. its __setattr__ is called), this base class does its thing and when a transaction is committed, the object is written out to the ZODB. Because mutable objects have methods that do an end-run around __setattr__ (such as list.append, dict.__setitem__, etc.), Zope won't know that the object has changed because setattr never gets called. However, when you do the persistence shuffle (ala m=self.map; m['foo']=bar; self.map=m), __setattr__ does get called on the parent object, and Zope therefore knows the object has been changed. Others may elaborate or correct, I'm certain. > -Original Message- > From: Pete Kazmier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, May 24, 2000 8:32 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Zope] Subclassing from Custom Python Classes > > > Thank you for the useful information!! > > I do have one more question regarding your persistence comments.

Try a couple of things: * Try dumping the REQUEST variable (e.g., '' in your form handler) and make sure that the SearchCategory is actally a list. * Make sure you leverage the ZPublisher marshalling machinery to force SearchCategory to be converted to a list, even if the user selects only one item, e.g.:: ^ on your form. > In I want to append the instance and not > SearchCategory list. For the moment, you need to alias the "outer" sequence item, because the "inner" one hides it (by that name). So, in your case:: ^^ Real Soon Now, you will be able to declare the alias for the sequence variable within the tag itself, which would solve your problem nicely.

Maik Roeder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Do think that the basic idea of offering different portals for > different communities (Beginners, Developers and so on) is a bad > idea ? What do you think about the organisation in Subjects/Topics ? Well, as a brand-spanking new user (or user wannabe, if I can get the tutorial to run), I think that offering portals at all is a bad thing. I want information, not hoops to jump through to get information. Part of this is that I don't really like portals much in general, but a large part of it is that when I have problems, I go looking for information to solve those problems, and I don't want to have to guess where something would be filed (kind of hard when you don't know much). The current portal segments information based on what kind of "user" you are, but in reality, my problems involve information which might be found in many places, and I have to dig through all of them to find out where. It might be better if all information were contained in all portals, but organized differently. Right now, as a "new user & developer" I have a portal that's empty... not even a link to the faq!

Re: [Zope] Subclassing from Custom Python Classes
Thank you for the useful information!!
I do have one more question regarding your persistence comments. How
does using a temporary name notify the Zope persistence machinery that
self.map has changed? Doesn't 'self.map=m' do nothing in Python if
one already did a 'm=self.map'? In the end, aren't they referencing
the exact same object? Hows does Zope know its different?
Thanks again,
Pete

Yes. ZSQL methods attempt to acquire values _before_ using the ones you
supply directly. It's been discussed on the list earlier this month, as I
found out when I stumbled upon it on Monday. Lots of things in 2.1.6 are
worth keeping, however, so I patched it. Just as soon as I have the time
I'll post a formal patch just as soon as I have time, but here's a quick
rundown:
In lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/Aquaduct.py you should see something like
this:
class BaseQuery(Persistent, SimpleItem.Item,
Acquisition.Implicit, RoleManager):
def query_year(self): return self.query_date.year()
def query_month(self): return self.query_date.month()
def query_day(self): return self.query_date.day()
query_date=DateTime.now()
manage_options=()
def quoted_input(self): return quotedHTML(self.input_src)
def quoted_report(self): return quotedHTML(self.report_src)
MissingArgumentError='Bad Request'
def _convert(self): self._arg=parse(self.arguments_src)
def _argdata(self, REQUEST):
r=ArgWrapper()
Change that last line to:
r={}
Then, in lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/DA.py, in __call__, look for this:
query=apply(self.template, (p, argdata))
And change it to:
query=apply(self.template, (p,), argdata)
That seemed to fix the problem for me. Brickbats to DC for releasing a
security update that breaks functionality this badly, but kudos to them
for releasing the code so we can patch around problems.

[Zope] Site search
I followed the helpful instructions in the Z Catalog tutorial concerning adding searching to my site, and it works, though not in the way that I'd like. I've added the raw field to the list of searched indices, and chosen to only index DTML documents. Yet, all of my searches seem to be case sensitive, and they all seem to be 'and' searches. I'm not particularly interested in supporting boolean keywords, but since my site isn't that large, it might make more sense to treat searches as 'or' searches by default. How difficult is it to implement case insensitive searches in this manner? Also, I've noticed that DTML documents don't appear to automatically add themselves to the Z catalog. My understanding is that all Z catalog-aware classes automatically notify the catalog when they are created; are DTML documents and methods not catalog-aware?

[Zope] ANN: Perl For Zope
Howdy gang. Below is an announcement that we'll start distributing over the next 24 hours. I wanted to let you folks see it first. In summary: Perl Methods. This isn't a press release, which we'll be doing in the run-up to the O'Reilly Open Source conference in July, when the code is closer to being available. --- Digital Creations, creators of the Open Source Zope application server, announced today that it is teaming with ActiveState, a leading provider of Internet programming software, to make Perl a scripting language for Zope. Perl is the predominant scripting language for Internet applications and is a key success story for the Open Source software movement. Zope is written in Python, the fastest growing Open Source scripting language. "It is clear that the strength of Zope realizes the future architecture of the Web," says Paul Everitt, CEO of Digital Creations. "This dynamic architecture, and the people working with it, are a fantastic match for scripting languages. Thus it is natural that Digital Creations would team with ActiveState to make Perl a scripting language for Zope." "Zope is a powerful content management system that we use internally," said Dick Hardt, CEO of ActiveState. "By adding the power of Perl to Zope, we will be able to leverage all the existing Perl technology that we have as well as bring the worlds of Python and Perl closer together." Under this agreement, ActiveState will get Python and Perl to run in the same application. More specifically, Perl programmers can code critical pieces of business logic in Zope solutions. "The Perl for Zope project brings the worlds of the two most important open source programming languages together," stated Gisle Aas, Senior Developer, ActiveState. "Python programmers will be able to directly take advantage of the large collection of reusable Perl program modules, like DBI, found on CPAN. Perl programmers will be able to program and customize the Zope web application server using their favorite language." The initial developer release of Perl For Zope will coincide with the O'Reilly Open Source Software Convention in July 2000. For more information on the project, please visit the Perl For Zope project page at http://www.zope.org/Wikis/zope-perl/.

>Perhaps you have a better crazier idea..I hope so:-)
Maybe. I too have had problems with the ZDP stuff, but not specifically
those mentioned by others in this thread. When I try to use the ZDP I am
impressed by the effort and sheer volume of material, but unfortunately it
seems to be mostly supported by non-native English speakers. The result is
that I am often uncertain that I clearly understand what the author
intended. That leaves me in a state that is nearly worse that where I
began, potentially more knowledgable, but certainly more confused. Now, for
that crazy solution.
If the ZDP were in some Wiki-ish form that could be edited by readers
("Edit This Page", a la Frontier?), a new version of a page could be
created to fix the most obvious misexpressions. The author might then be
able to review the updates, and either approve the fixes, or clarify cases
where a misfix has resulted from a misinterpretation, which itself is a
verifiable indication that the original text was somewhat obscure. After a
few passes through this process, the ZDP might be dressed up and ready to
go to press!
In a case like the proposal above, anyone willing to do some copyediting
would be free to edit a paragraph at a sitting, if that's the all the time
available, or a page, or a chapter. Whatever works. I know I have been
reluctant to commit to any extensive participation simply because my time
is very limited. Still, as tight as the schedule is, it isn't quite in the
negative microseconds yet, so a graph per shift is better than nothing!
With this in mind see the very recent post:
http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/2000-May/005021.html
This is a way to manage Zope Objects, stuff that usually lives in ZODB,
using CVS. This can provide versioning, checkout, checkin, etc. It could be
used as a way to let ZDP Authors know what's changed, at a very granualr
level, to keep from having to wade through the page looking for somthing
that isn't precisely as it was last time they saw it. ZDP is itself a Zope
site, so this could be just the ticket.
How can such a critter be set up?
Thanks for considering a crazier idea,
Jerry S.

RE: [Zope] Reloading products

I can completely add or remove my own products from the Products directory and they have no effect whatsoever on the ZODB. Am I missing something? Here's what I'm doing to create a product (following source for various things including the Boring product): 1) create folder Products/AlbumImage 2) add __init__.py 3) in __init__.py, import AlbumImage, initialise(context) stuff 4) create AlbumImage/AlbumImage.py 5) do stuff that is good in AlbumImage.py Now, as far as I can tell, this should be sufficient to make my product appear in the products folder.

[Zope] (newbie) manage_options?
I'm making a new product derived from Poll, and I want it to have the
standard 'Contents' tab where it displays its subitems in a tree and
stuff. The original Poll product (Poll.py) has:
manage_options=(
{'label':'Properties', 'action':'manage_main'},
manage_main=HTMLFile('pollEdit', globals())
So it has no Content tab, and the main view is an edit form.
I took a line from another product with the behavior I wanted and said:
manage_options=(
{'label':'Contents', 'action':'manage_main'},
(removing the Properties entry) and didn't define manage_main at all.
But it looks exactly the same as before! Is there somewhere else it could
be determining what tabs to display and what function to call for
each? Poll is derived from (Folder,RoleManager) -- it should be looking
in Folder, right? Am I totally off base here?
Thanks

It would be very helpful if you would take a look at the new help system in the latest alpha release. Or even better, check out Zope via CVS and try that out.

It is the case, so "no". I read that last sentence as "can you use Python
to assemble existing components [written in e.g. C++]". While that is _a
part_ of the capability we're talking about, we are also talking about the
ability to have Python components act invisibly to the rest of Mozilla as
full-fledged XPCOM components (much like existing C++ components currently).
This is not unlike what one can do in PythonCOM currently in the Windows
world.

The former.

That too. Both of those (really the same feature) require considerable
changes to the parser and to the DOM model, as documented in e.g.
http://www.mozilla.org/scriptable/agnostic.html. Again, that is part of our
long-term plan.

In the long term, yes -- but not in the short term. In the short term
you'll have to use some JS in XUL files, although it will be able to
reference and call and manipulate components written in Python outside of
the XUL.

We're still working out how to proceed with respect to working with folks
outside of the company. I expect much of the discussion will take place on
existing Mozilla newsgroups.

Sorry, I'm unable to give a best guess at this point with any meat behind
it, especially when it involves integration with the main Mozilla tree, over
which we have no control.
While it's not a direct answer to your question, we are collecting email
addresses of those who want to be notified when Komodo is ready
(http://www.activestate.com/Products/Komodo.html).
I hope the above is helpful.

Thanks for telling me what you think about the ZDP site. The portal is only 24 days old, and we still need to fill in all the subjects and topics.

[Zope] Reloading products
newbie time: I'm trying to write a product AlbumImage which extends Image to include a thumbnail. I was determined to slog it out without begging for help, but I've come up against a very strange brick wall. I'm getting problems with an import statement at the beginning of my product from OFS.PropertyManager import PropertyManager now then. I originally mis-spelled PropertyManager 'PropertyManageer' and got a traceback telling me it didn't exist. Fine. I changed it to the correct spelling, stopped and started my zope (n.b. is there any way of reloading a product without the tedium of stopping and starting zope?), and it still said 'no module named PropertyManageer'. So I tried changing it to ProoopertyManager, restarted Zope and sure enough the error was 'no module named ProoopertyManager'. BUT...I changed it to PropertyManager again and the error was *still* 'no module named ProoopertyManager'.

Would you please expand on the "make XPCOM components" task. By
this are you adding new components, written in Python, that will be
accessible through the XPCOM interface? Would these components be

through the XPCOM interface? If this isn't the case then is does this

[Zope] 2.1.4 to 2.1.6 nightmare
Hi Zopistas, after upgrading Zope (in a debian/Linux system) from 2.1.4 to 2.1.6 the acquisition rules seems to be broken. As an example supose we have this tree structure ---|- aviso |- foo |- bar |- X_sql (sql method) X_sql is a sql method with to parameters: objeto, aviso here is the template: INSERT INTO linea_publicacion (publicacion,aviso) VALUES (&dtml-objeto;,&dtml-aviso;) when zope renders this template to execute the sql, it renders INSERT INTO linea_publicacion (publicacion,aviso) VALUES (3,) so it replaces aviso with the folder instance aviso. Apart of discarding the explicit parameter "aviso", the aviso folder is not parent of bar so it shoudn't acquire it. So, who can explain me this?? is that a bug in Zope 2.1.6 ?? Zope 2.1.4 works fine. -- __ Felipe Alvarez Harnecker. QlSoftware.

[Zope] The agony of the ZOPE Documentation
I'm sorry, but I have to say, the ZOPE documentation, despite efforts to improve it, is absolutely, positively horrible. Not because the content isn't there, but because the tools to access it simply suck. I can type in searches on both zope.org and zdp.zope.org and though I KNOW the information is there, I can't get the results I want! Constantly, when I am recommending ZOPE to people, the ONE thing I and they complain about is the horrible documentation! Is there some way that I can get a copy of all of the FAQ's, HOW-TOs, Ref manuals, etc in some kind of raw ASCII text format or HTML or something, so that I can build some kind of useful search engine for this stuff? The search engines on www.zope.org and zdp.zope.org just plain suck. Additionally, the zdp web site is a real nice idea that is SO poorly executed IMO as to make it totally unusable. You can't even browse the documentation without clicking through a thousand different links. (I can give you specific examples of how to improve the site if you want.) Please, anyone? Save Zope's documentation! -- Some husbands are living proof that a woman can take a joke. ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

[Zope] Problem rendering large table thru Zope - thru filesystem is ok
We have a report we generate in zope that creates a large table with lots of font changes. When the total size of the file approaches 150k zope refuses to render it. We have a method that creates a copy of the report using _.render and saves it to a file. If we try to use LocalFS to access the file it does not render. The Status bar on browser says "found. Waiting for reply" and the progress bar slowly marches accross its box - but nothing displays. If I go to the drive via our network and double click on the .html file created with _.render, it comes up in about 2 seconds. Yet If I try to access it in "view" mode in the LocalFS folder for that drive it does not display. If I click on the file in LocalFS manage mode the raw html code displays in the text box without a problem. Any ideas? Any suggestions? Any incantations? __ Jim Sanford .

[Zope] GUF and userList problems
Greetings, I am having problems with GUF authentication after including a call to a sql method from within the GUF supplied userList method. I have GUF installed correctly, and able to authenticate from a static list of users I created in the userList method. When I attempt to call a sql method from within userList, all authentications fail. Even for the list of static users. My sql method, "SQL_get_users", is very simple: select user_account from user My modified userList Method is as follows: jorge fred mongo I have verified that the sql method returns users by selecting the "User_list" tab from within the acl_users folder. I have tried numerous things, but I cannot get any of the users to authenticate after adding the statement. If I comment out the statement, the users jorge, fred, and mongo can once again authenticate. At first I thought maybe one of the sql method supplied users was conflicting with either jorge, fred, or mongo in some way so I took out the line, essentially calling the sql method but not returning anything from it. Still couldn't authenticate anyone. Has anyone been successful in getting GUF userList to work with a sql method? I have read through hippys how-to and think I have done everything he has suggested. Systems specifics are: Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 server, service pack 5 Zope version 2.1.6 GUF version 1.2.2 Microsoft Access 2000 Any help at this point will be appreciated.

Hm, I'm afraid this is a DTML trick (nothing more). I hope I can explain this right. Please correct me if I go wrong. Normally in DTML, you access variables in the current namespace with , which actually stands for In an expression like the one used by J you actually use an expression, like , in which case you do not get the id variable in the current namespace, but the actual value of the id attribute (property) of the object in the current namespace. The problem here is that the id of index_html is a python method (which is actually returned by ). This will never be equal to 'index_html' as that is a string. The solution is to call the variable in the current object namespace by using it like a dictionary in the python expression . Because it's a method, you could (in this case) also use , in which case a string is returned (so that will once again be useful. However, the _['id'] is preferred, because it will work on different objects and the id of most other objects is a string. For example: do something nice would work, whereas would break if there are objects whose ids are not methods (assuming File is one of them, which I wouldn't know) So the different forms are (actually there are some more, but they do not matter here): will give you an error Now that was probably more English than you'd hoped for hth Rik ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Re: [Zope] Feeling like a newbie.. document id if statement?
_ is the default namespace which you can treat sort of like a dictionary, so this means you can index into it with the name 'things'. so _['id'] means give me the id of the current namespace. well sort of. - Original Message - From: "Timothy Wilson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Rik Hoekstra" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "J.

One easy way is to visit /Control_Panel/manage_debug which shows you
the details about each active connection, including your own. Another
possibility is to create a DTML method called "req" in your root folder
which simply calls .
I solved the 1900 problem by changing DateTime.py so that years 00-69
are now translated to 2000-2069. That's the way it was supposed to
work in the first place; I think something fell through the cracks
awhile back.
Everybody is counting on having 64-bit processors or better by the year
2038, and if we do, performing an int() cast will be a safe thing to
do.
