[Ann] ZopeProfiler: high and low level timing statistics
by Dieter Maurer 02 Apr '03

02 Apr '03

ZopeProfiler provides profiling support for the development of Zope applications. It can derive both high and low level timing statistics (Zope object call and Python function call level, respectively). Unlike with the standard Zope profiling support, Zope runs normally in multi-threaded mode. Statistics gathering can be enabled/disabled dynamically via the ZopeProfiler object in the Control_Panel. This objects supports most features of Python's pstats.Stats timing analysis class and is much smarter than the standard Zope profiler. Should the features be insufficient, then statistics data can be saved to files and later analysed with Python's Stats class.

ExternalEditor 0.7 - Don't let the date fool you!
by Casey Duncan 01 Apr '03

01 Apr '03

I'm stupified to present to you the long-overdue 0.7 edition of External Editor on this fine first day of April, 2003. The most distinguishing new feature is the addition of support for MS Office. I also hopefully managed to fix the Windows build so that it supports ssl... Here's the whole scoop: - Added working distutils setup for Unix. - You can now specify from the server that the helper app should borrow a lock by passing borrow_lock=1 via the request, thus suppressing the dialog box which appears by default. Thanks to Shane Hathaway. - Improved open file check in Word and Powerpoint plugins thanks to Yura Petrov. - Added plugins for Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint. - Added the man page from the Debian distro. Thanks go out to Federico Sevilla III and Andreas Tille Download at:: http://www.zope.org/Members/Caseman/ExternalEditor Huh? What? ExternalEditor is a Zope Product and client-side helper application to connect your web browser directly to your favorite editors. Once configured you can click on the edit icon in the ZMI and use your favorite client side applications to edit your Zope objects. Works with both text and binary data. Works with any browser that supports helper applications. Easily integrates into your Zope content management applications. Enjoy! -Casey

ZopeDebugging - "Conversing With Zope" paper and a wiki
by Ken Manheimer 31 Mar '03

31 Mar '03

I presented a paper at the PyCon python conference last week, "Conversing with Zope: Interactive Debugging Using the Python Prompt", and i've put the paper in a wiki, at: http://www.zope.org/Members/klm/ZopeDebugging The paper contains techniques, tips, and hints for interacting with Zope using the python prompt and pdb. It can be eye-opening and sometimes incredibly handy to interact with Zope that way. The wiki includes the paper, a complete recipe for setting up a ZEO-based Zope site, and also space for feedback and visitor-contributed tips - this could be a place to collect and grow zope debugging wisdom... -- Ken klm(a)zope.com
