Hi!
ZPublisher.Publish and zope.publisher.publish process form inputs
differently. Zope 2 returns encoded strings unchanged if no converters
are specified. zope.publisher converts encoded strings to unicode.
One major reason why zope.formlib and z3c.form can't be used directly in
Zope 2 is the fact they expect decoded form values. five.formlib uses
special base classes and plone.z3cform monkey patches the base classes
in z3c.form.
Proposal:
- Products.Five.browser.decode should be moved to ZPublisher.
processInputs and setPageEncoding are publisher related code.
- After traversal and before calling the object
ZPublisher.Publish.publish should figure out if the object expects
zope.publisher behavior. Either we use a new interface for this or we
use zope.publisher.interfaces.browser.IBrowserPage: AFAICS in Zope 2
land only zope.formlib and z3c.form based views implement IBrowserPage.
- If the object implements that interface, the request is post processed
using processInputs and setPageEncoding.
- plone.z3cform uses a modified version of processInputs and doesn't use
setPageEncoding. Can anybody explain why? I guess that are no z3c.form
specific reasons. Maybe the changes can be merged back to Zope?
Does that make sense? I guess that kind of change should only be made on
the trunk.
Cheers,
Yuppie
