[Zope-dev] RFC: page contracts
Hi eveyone. While playing around with the development version of ACS (ArsDigita Community System), I noticed a very nice feature they introduced, namely page contracts. In ACS, this means that every tcl page starts with a call to ad_page_contract. In the parameters passed, you specify: - general page documentation (what it does) - author(s) - creation date (not needed for Zope since we have bobobase_modification_time) - CVS ID (not quite applicable for Zope (yet?)) - the expected input variables (from forms) along with their default values (where applicable) and types (having a couple of types like "integer" and "string" predefined and an easy-to-use plugin system to add custom types) - an optional validation block in which you can check the input data ranges and validity (you can also make validation rules depend on each other so if one fails, the rules which depend on it aren't tried) - an optional custom error messages section (to use when one of the required input variables is not there or does not match the format, or when a validation block fails). If you don't provide this some reasonable defaults are provided. IMHO, such a feature would be very useful for Zope too. I find myself quite often doing input validation and error handling in DTML, which is (to say the least) painful. I would be interested to give a try at implementing this, but before starting I wanted to hear community's opinion on: - whether this would be useful - how this should be aproached (the two possibilities I have in mind until now are either a separate manage tab for the page contract, and there a HTML-based interface for building it, either a dtml-contract tag which surrounds the page contract (written in python probably) and placed at the top of DTML documents/methods). -- Petru Paler, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ppetru.net - ICQ: 41817235 ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

[Zope-dev] 2.2.1 changes tighten security?
Working on a new release of Membership, I have encountered a problem.
Doing the development in 2.2.1, I cant seem to access my roles managemenu UI as
Manager.
For those who haven't seen it, her eit is:
dtml-in ShowUsers
dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user',_['sequence-item'][0])"
form action="/acl_users/manageRolesForUser" method=POST
br dtml-var user dtml-var "user.roles"
input type=hidden name=user value="dtml-var user"
input type=submit name=submit value="Manage Roles"
/form
/dtml-in
Where ShowUsers is a python mehtod that returns a list of user objects.
The traceback indictaes the problem lies in accessing "user.roles". roles is on the
Restricted Property sheet, which
requires you have the 'Manage users" role. Of course, as manager, I expect I have it.
:)
This worked fine in 2.2.0, and was wondering if anyone knew what changes would bring
this behaviour out, and how to fix
it off hand.
TIA, Bill

Re: [Zope] getting parent document
Thanks for your answer. This would do too, but Stephan Richter gave me a nice way to do it. A dtml-method with the following: dtml-raw Because of acquisition this will result in the "document" being included in its whole. His suggestions: 1. html: contains the HTML code viewMethod: called like: viewMethod?file=html dtml-var "_[file]" 2. The best by far. Write your own little Zope object in Python that has only an id and a body. Then you can say: URL/html/viewMethods Inside viewMethods: dtml-var body 3. Well, I found solution 3 reading the DTML Method source code pretty quick. inside viewMethod: dtml-var raw -- That returns the unprocessed body of the object and due to the acquisition behavior of DTML methods it looks one object up, which is html. so URL/html/viewMethod works Anders Holmbech Nielsen writes: I have a dtml-method called test which I want to use like: someurl/document/test and in the dtml-method I want to include the document in its whole. I have tried something with the URL like: dtml-var dtml-var URL1 this offcourse dont work... but this neither... Try: dtml-var "PARENTS[0](_.None,_)" "PARENTS[0]" gives you the parent, in your case "someurl/document". Calling this object renders it. If you call it without parameters, you cut the namespace chain. If you pass "_.None,_", you pass the namespace explicitly. (This usually is done by DTML behind the scenes, but inside "...", you must do it yourself).

Re: [Zope] ZCatalog in 2.2.x
I am not searching from a form in that sense...I am talking about at the python
level.
I have self.searchResults({'description':'blah'}) where description is meta
data in the catalog and a textindex and 'blah' is in the Vocabulary. This
previously worked in zope2.1.6. Now in 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 it doesn't work. The
only thing way I can get searchResults() to return a non empty list is to search
using a Field index and a valid string to match with.

Hi,

Search the ZCatalog has worked fine when my product is instantiated in

searching only works when I search using a field index. Searching using
a textindex always results in an empty result, even tho I can see the
words I am searching for in the Vocabulary! Any suggestions? I have
tried reindexing, completey recreating the Zcatalog, recreating the
Vobulary and reindexing, and nothing has changed the behaviour. Are
textindexes simply broken?
ZCatalog seems very volatile to me! Every time I have upgraded way back
from zope2.1.3, something in zcatalog has changed and boken my product.
So far I have managed to find fixes, but this one has got me baffled!!
My experience has been that if field indexes are unspecified, the catalog
will only match where those fields are empty. In other words, by not
specifing anything for the field indexes, you are actually specifying that
for a match, they need to be empty.
To get around this, I put another method between the form for entering what
you wish to search for, and the method that actually searches the form. This
method looks at the field indexes, and if nothing has been specified, it
doesn't pass them on to the method that does the actual search.
An alternative to this, is to use names for the field indexes that aren't in
the catalog index, and then at the start of the search method, check those
names, and if they have a value associated with them, add to REQUEST what the
names in the index are with the appropriate values.
There may be a better way, I'm still pretty new to Zope and DTML sort of
stuff.

Re: [Zope] Generic Workflow Products?
i haven't had time to read through the links, although i will once i get some more of that mystical free time stuff, but i wanted to clarify about PTK workflows. most of the existing workflow structs in PTK were doc based with simple workflows, but there has been a concerted effort to refactor PTK into Singleton objects which give abilities to all objects vs. the old method of inheritance for abilities. In this scenario workflow objects can be plugged into the architecture. Another item that gives support for complex workflows is the event/subscriber/publisher system being developed right now. check out the later half of the PTK archives for August to get some more background. if you want to influence the project, now is the time, make your voice/needs heard. One place to start would be to have a look at openflow.sourceforge.net. This Zope based workflow system is based on WFMC's reference model. It does not have everything you would want but it is a good start. Once reason to be looking a WFMC is that such an implementation would allow integration with existing workflow systems such as Staffware's. SWAP and the newer WFMC XML wrapping would also be worth considering as they would be like XML-RPC for workflow which would enhance interoperability. There is a need to execute a workflow box which would exec a app associated with the box on data -- this data not being just one doc in a members PTK folder but a suite of data for the step. There is opportunity for a Zope based system to be the web publishing side of existing workflow systems, like Staffware's. Staffware's white paper on how they will do web-based workflow begged for a solution like Zope. Staffware is one of the better workflow systems that includes the ability to execute programs within workflow. Certainly for usecase analysis one could look at existing packages like Staffware. For events, one might consider adopting some of the "webwise" event system standards coming out. I have not followed these closely, but I know they exist. One reason to do so is that this would enhance interoperability with external packages that also adopt standards.

This is not right, obviously. Can you rebuild your indexes (by deleting

haven't had any colluding reports of something like this, and I'm using
the 2.2.1 catalog with textindexes successfully on a customer project.

Hi,

Search the ZCatalog has worked fine when my product is

searching only works when I search using a field index.
Searching using
a textindex always results in an empty result, even tho I
can see the
words I am searching for in the Vocabulary! Any
suggestions? I have
tried reindexing, completey recreating the Zcatalog,
recreating the
Vobulary and reindexing, and nothing has changed the
behaviour. Are
textindexes simply broken?
ZCatalog seems very volatile to me! Every time I have
upgraded way back
from zope2.1.3, something in zcatalog has changed and
boken my product.
So far I have managed to find fixes, but this one has got
me baffled!!
My experience has been that if field indexes are
unspecified, the catalog
will only match where those fields are empty. In other
words, by not
specifing anything for the field indexes, you are actually
specifying that
for a match, they need to be empty.
To get around this, I put another method between the form
for entering what
you wish to search for, and the method that actually
searches the form. This
method looks at the field indexes, and if nothing has been
specified, it
doesn't pass them on to the method that does the actual search.
An alternative to this, is to use names for the field
indexes that aren't in
the catalog index, and then at the start of the search
method, check those
names, and if they have a value associated with them, add
to REQUEST what the
names in the index are with the appropriate values.
There may be a better way, I'm still pretty new to Zope and
DTML sort of
stuff.

RE: [Zope] Versions...
Versions are problematic in combination with mounted storages in particular because there is no link in versioning between storages. You can easily create a versioned object in one storage, then traverse to another part of the instance space that's been mounted and use that version cookie to make a change. But you need to commit the two versions separately. If you commit one of them, you'll be left scratching your head as to why the other storage didn't commit. I'd say in this particular that it's perhaps a limitation of mounted storages rather than versions. -Original Message- From: Chris Withers [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2000 8:28 AM To: Chris McDonough Cc: 'Roman Milner'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Zope] Versions...

Re: [Zope] FSSession problems...
Curtis, Could you describe how often does the problem happen? How many session users goes to the site? You mentioned about a month of public usage. During that month, did you have one single incident? How many sessions happened during that month? All key-based session management systems are intrinsically unsafe, since other people can tap into your session, with non-zero probability, if the key-length is finite. The only hope is to make the key long enough, so even if the hacker has a supercomputer, it would still take him/her the age of the universe to crack into your website. One thing I mentioned to Pavlos (and/or Anthony Baxter?) before is that the key lengths of their cookies are a bit too short. For my HappySession product (another session management product, which is RAM based), I cranked up the key length to 128 alphanumeric char key, exactly because I wanted no key collision for a long long time. :) Another thing I observed during the development of HappySession was that on Linux (and Debian) server systems, I had problem with deleting the cookies of the clients. (No problem with NT server.) At the end, I chose not to delete cookies but instead setting their values to blank, when the session expires. It was a weird problem, I did not know why I couldn't delete client cookies (maybe it was a mistake on my part), but I chose the simple way out by setting the cookie to blank. And it worked fine. So instead of detecting the presence of the cookie alone, I detected the presence AND whether the cookie was blank. regards, Hung Jung _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

[Zope] Graphics served randomly. Apache - pcgi cacheing problem
Has anyone seen the following behavior: I am using PCGI with Zope 2.1.6 and Apache 1.3.9. Everything works fine except when reloading the same page, the graphics in it are not "painted" by the client browser. Checking on the apache logs, I found there is a 304, meaning the object has not changed on the web server and therefore the client should be using its local cached copy. On the Z2.log, for the same graphics requests, there are no 304's but 200's meaning Zope DID serve the graphic through pcgi. So, It appears Apache is loosing the graphics somewhere. Nevertheless, the graphic is never rendered. Weirdly this happens on IE 5.0, Netscape 4.75 and StarOffice 5.2. All browsers do have at least 5 MB of disk cache and 3 MB of memory cache. This confirms the problem lies on Apache itself. Am I right? This happens in a random fashion. I have not been able to establish some pattern. The text on the pages gets rendered fine. Any ideas on how to solve this issue will be greatly appreciated, Best regards.

I haven't found out if it's due to changes in Zope 2.2.1, bugs introduced while evolving M2Crypto, changes in OpenSSL 0.9.5 versus 0.9.4, or the much faster CPUs I'm now developing on.

In this scenario workflow objects can be plugged into the architecture. Another item that gives support for complex workflows is the event/subscriber/publisher system being developed right now. check out the later half of the PTK archives for August to get some more background. if you want to influence the project, now is the time, make your voice/needs heard. Here are two useful diagrams from WFMC's white paper, "Workflow and Internet: Catalysts for Radical Change" ( http://www.aiim.org/wfmc/finalwp.pdf ). The first is a diagram of WFMC's reference model. The second is a diagram of workflow concepts. http://www.zope.org/Members/aboulang/wfmc1.gif and http://www.zope.org/Members/aboulang/wfmc2.gif Regards, Albert Boulanger [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ 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] RE[3]: [Zope] Product inheritance question. == Pb. moving class from a product to another + etc.s from a product to another + etc.
Title: RE[3]: [Zope] Product inheritance question. == Pb. moving class from a product to another + etc. Hello, If it is a class method, it must be inherited by any derived class. This is what I had done. However, I had the time finally to conduce the following tests. - create a Product P1 (Note: I used the word package instead of Product in my previous postings) - create a Class A in P1 - create a method z in the Class A - create a Product P2 - create a Class AA that inherits A in product P2. - create an object 'o' instance of Class AA. - make the test of calling the method z on 'o'. Results: everything works fine !! So everything seems to work correctly with the new version. However, when I try to do the same (create a method z and test) for Packages that I had created in the previous version of Zope, it just does not work !! (I have imported in the new version the class I had created in the previous version). I believe that this had to do with the trick I used to split and existing Product in several Products: Since I could not move a class directly from a package to another, I created 2 copies of the same packages. I deleted from the first package the class I wanted to move. From the second package, I deleted the classes I didn't want to move. The result was 2 packages with each the correct set of classes. The problem is that this seems to have generated some kind of inconsistancy, in particular related to the namespace: the second package do not have access to the namespace of the first package. I know this was a relatively ugly way to proceed, but I found at that having a zillion of classes in a same package was even more ugly, and I needed to reduce this complexity by introducing more modularity. Of course, at the beginning I couldn't predict which Products and which classes would exist and I decided to start with one package and split it later. If you had nor noticed I used some kind of incremental/prototypical/evolutionary/blablabla methodology. Unfortunatly, not being able -- to move classes from one product to another -- makes the use of this methodology problematic :-(. Another similar problem is that you can not modify a posteriori the inheritance tree. (for instance when you decompose a class into 2 subclasses that inherit from one another). To conclude, I find Zope to be a very interesting systems (because it is dynamic, object-oriented, integrate seamlessly an OO database, etc.). However, it would be an even better system if it provided more flexibility to reengineer an architecture. (very important when you use a prototypical approach). Or perhaps, there is something I have not understood ?

[Zope] ZClass and Propertysheets
Hi, I have created a ZClass with a propertysheet called "Basic". I added a property "db_id", integer value with a default value of 0. Then I created two instances and changed the value to 1 in the first and 2 in the second instance. When I try to render the property with a dtml-var db_id I get a 1 in both instances. That's not what I expected in the beginning. In particular not because there doesn't seen to be anything wrong when I have a look at the property sheet in the instance's management screen. I have different values there. Am I wrong or is there something wrong with Zope 2.2.1 and ZClasses?

[Zope] Squishdot/zcatalog question goes unanswered...
I have asked the following question on the zope list, the squishdot site, and the squishdot eGroups site without a single response. Is there something I am leaving out or is it a hard one? Question: I am running Zope 2.1.6 and Squishdot 6 (upgraded from 2-3-5-6). I have created a keyword search of my entire site. I see the Squishdot site listed as a cataloged object, but when I run a keyword search of my site, I get everything but the squishdot site items. Since my last upgrade I have updated the catalog to no avail. Incidentally, I have the zope chat example running also, and it shows every single posting by every user in the catalog objects, but these also don't show in search results (but this may be a design issue for chat). Any help resolving the Squishdot issue would be greatly appreciated. I don't care about chat very much.

[Zope] Overriding server's notion of SERVER_NAME, SERVER_PORT, etc.
In 2.2.1 I can no longer override ZServer's notion of SERVER_NAME,
SERVER_PORT, etc. from the invoking shell environment. (I am currently
running 2.0.0, so this may well be true of other earlier 2.1.x and 2.2.x
versions. With a little luck, I may actually be able to upgrade in the next
few days...)
I run ZServer listening to 127.0.0.2, port 9673. The only thing that talks
directly to it is my front-end Apache server via its proxy module, so I want
any HTML generated to reflect the visible address and port, not ZServer's
hidden address and port. I was previously able to force these variables to
be what I wanted by simply setting them before running the server:
SERVER_NAME=dolphin.mojam.com ; export SERVER_NAME
SERVER_PORT=80 ; export SERVER_PORT
HTTP_HOST=$SERVER_NAME:$SERVER_PORT ; export HTTP_HOST
SCRIPT_NAME=/ ; export SCRIPT_NAME
but 2.2.1 ignores these settings. I made a few simple changes to
ZServer/HTTPServer.py and lib/python/ZPublisher/HTTPRequest.py that use
environment variables as defaults if they're available. Context diffs are
attached to this msg. I'd appreciate feedback from those in the know if
these were the correct sort of changes to make or if there is a better
(supported) way to achieve my goal.
Thx,

Chris Withers [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Karl Anderson wrote: What FTP editing options are there for ZClass definitions? Your email address suggests you should be able to find out more easily than me ;-) Well, I'm pretty sure the answer is "none", but I'm asking to the list so if someone does have some kind of workaround, the reply will be public. Maybe you could suggest better editing support for FTP or is WebDAV the way of the future? Mention was made of Adobe GoLive! in Paris, what's that like for doing this sort of this? FTP is limited for this sort of thing because it works on files with no metadata. I *think* that the only reason one can't edit DTML methods in a ZClass definition is that the intermediate steps don't support a FTP directory interface. That'd be a nice first step. I've heard some ideas about how we could edit properties, permissions, etc. with FTP, some more hackish than others. Best is probably some sort of XML text file associated with an item. But from what I've been reading, the focus will be on through the web editing whenever possible. I personally find it much more convenient to work with python baseclasses have a python shell looking at the ZODB in an emacs buffer, so I have a history of what I've done and seen and can look at the objects attributes on any level. And yes, the wave of the future does appear to be with the various clients that are coming out, Radio Userland being the most recent that I've heard about. -- Karl Anderson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ 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] Keeping app logic in Zope (was Paul's talk in Paris)
Warning, this message has been composed over several days. If my thoughts wander, that's one excuse. :) Simon Coles wrote: [snip] Python products could be endangered species because its managed in the file system, which isn't in the "all tiers as managed content" thing. I guess this means that Python Methods and ZClasses will be the preferred model? The reason I wonder is because I am right now beginning development of a new website. I had been planning on doing most of my development in Python Products as I currently have no particular need of thru the web development and I like Python. No particular aversion to ZClasses or Python Methods just that I know Python products can do what I want and need. I understand the the desire to move to a system where the all of the web app resides within the Zope environment instead of parts on the file system. What is the current status regarding incorporating Python Methods into the Zope core? Just looked at the Python Methods wiki at: http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/PythonMethods/FrontPage This is issue also affects the Problem paragraph of the Vision Statement on this wiki, as this broadens the scope of users who choose to use PMs or reasons thereof. Also within the desires stated above (to remain with the Zope environment, ZODB) will there be a means for those with "authority" to authoritatively do stupid things with Python such as shoot yourself in the foot? :) Not that anyone desires to do something stupid, but sometimes the ability to do harm also enables the ability to do good. That is an aspect of freedom. Some things require interaction outside of the Zope environment. What will be the official Zope way of handling these types of things? Back again from the Python Methods wiki. :) A question/suggestion as a part of the Python Methods proposal was to move External Methods to become a part of Python Methods. This is on the Current Issues pages. I added a comment to the wiki. Basically, in light of Paul's comments and my above desires for necessary expressiveness depending on the authority of the user and the situation, I think putting External Methods into the Python Methods part of Zope core would be good. It would allow for EMs to be in the ZODB instead of on the file system. As I've thought about these issues and with knowing that I want to use ZEO I think the above would be of benefit in developing my site. The less I involve the file system the easier it should be to distribute my web app logic throughout the ZEO system. I think I'm talking myself into it. :) For me this is a change in direction for Zope development thought. Any suggestions, thoughts or comments appreciated. Thanks for letting me ramble.

I am converting an existing application to Zope and need to be able to generate CRC-32 checksums for checking file integrity of software we produce. __ Jim Sanford .

Re: [Zope] FSSession problems...

During that month, did you have one single incident? How many sessions happened during that month? So far, we have one recorded incident, and one anecdotal (from internal) incident. I am having some more extensive testing done soon, so we can try to pin down further the exact circumstances which cause this problem. The site is used for issuing product return authorities, and so far, over 160 RAs have been issued. Yes, it is a fairly low traffic site. Session data is retained between visits (a side effect, but a welcome one), so I really cannot be sure of how many sessions were used. All key-based session management systems are intrinsically unsafe, since other people can tap into your session, with non-zero probability, if the key-length is finite. The only hope is to make the key long enough, so even if the hacker has a supercomputer, it would still take him/her the age of the universe to crack into your website. One thing I mentioned to Pavlos (and/or Anthony Baxter?) before is that the key lengths of their cookies are a bit too short. For my HappySession product (another session management product, which is RAM based), I cranked up the key length to 128 alphanumeric char key, exactly because I wanted no key collision for a long long time. :) Well, yes and no. This really depends on the sensitivity of your data, and how likely it is for someone to try to crack your site. In this case, both are fairly low, so the key strength is fine, IMHO. regards, Hung Jung ___ 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] ANNOUNCE ZEO 0.3 Released
A new release of Zope Enterprise Objects (ZEO) is available at: http://www.zope.org/Products/ZEO. This release fixes a bug that caused spurious conflict errors and that could eventually make it impossible to make changes without restarting a ZEO client (e.g. Zope process). The release also has two enhancements when running the ZEO server on Unix: - When the storage server start script is run as root, the script will switch to a different user (nobody by default). There is a new '-u' option that can be used to specify the user. - The storage server will gracefully close served storages when the server is killed with a SIGTERM or SIGHUP. If a FileStorage is being served, then an index file will be written. If you encounter problems with ZEO, please report them using the ZEO issue tracker at: http://www.zope.org/Products/ZEO/Tracker.

Re: [Zope] ZCatalog Queries...
I saw this email with some interest since i had an offlist conversation with some of the people at nipltd regarding a mailing list project, but i chose to do it outside of zope because of lingering doubts about zope's suitability(more ZCatalog) for the task. Chris Withers wrote: Chris McDonough wrote: It's be nice if ZCatalog had a good general purpose interface, and was a bit more robust. (the BTree implementation which has been mentioned a few times springs to mind here ;-) Can you be more specific? Andy can fill you in on the specifics. What's insufficient about the current implementation? It doesn't scale well, especially for things where you have lots of new data arriving (this is the BTree problem, I think...) It has no published and well defined query syntax (there's patches here, bits there, but no definitive document on how to use it, how to batch with it, how to perform complex and structured queries, particularly with TextIndex'es) Don't get me wrong, it is very cool, but only kindof 70% there :S (and I get the impression that doing the remaining 30% properly would require a rewrite...) more of the same... I think that zcatalog is great for simple property indexing but it has some signifigant drawbacks for its most common use, which is mass text indexing, and searching. As object an catalog, its fine, But i think as a mass text indexing/searching machinery it bites. I think Zope could really use either a companion to zcatalog for text searching or a replacement. If i'd like to index 50M i'd like not to have my search take unreasonable long, give erroneous results, thrash my machine because i choose to index it at once, yet these are all things that i've experienced with zcatalog since i started using zope. for sure its gotten much better, but it still can't handle my use cases. So i've accepted that ZCatalog isn't a site wide nor a scalable tool. ok so the question(at least to me) than becomes what to implement. i'm not totally sure... i've taken a look/leaning towards Evolution's text indexing (libibex), i consulted some of the evolution developers and this is the response i got 8/5/00(us) You probably dont want to use libibex as it is now - all indexes are stored in memory for example, and it uses a lot of memory as well (uses gtree's). It will handle 100MB of mail fine enough though on modern hardware, if you ahve the spare memory. At some point we are going to change the backend to use a disk based storage, using the search engine used in nautilus (can't remember what its called), although we will probably make a wrapper so the api should remain. which takes back to square one. i am convinced of the need for full-text reliable search on a site or a part of site. but i'm unsure of what the best way to do it would be. my2cents kapil As an example, we've been trying to do Zope-based versions of the mailing list archives for a coupla months now and the Catalog keeps exploding in different ways (huge resource consumption, even for only 30K messages or so, no matter what storage is used) Then there's the ubiquitous 'KeyError's and other associated weirdness, all of which leaves me feeling a lot less than totally confident in the Catalog ;-) comments very welcome, Chris ___ 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 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 )
