Suppose I write a query like this: select * from mytable where value in (1, 2, 3) the (1, 2, 3) part is autogenerated. It could be, say, 128 terms long. Is this what you are talking about when you say 'tuple' ? > Besides, Thierry is French! cocorico! :-) regards, jephte clain minf7(a)educ.univ-reunion.fr

another idea from Refresh
by Scott Parish 20 Jun '00

Would it be possible to hack out something similar to Refresh that would import new products into Zope without needing to restart Zope? sRp -- Scott Parish http://srparish.net

censemble communication toolkit and distributed lock manager
by Mark Hayden 20 Jun '00

20 Jun '00

I recently announced the availability of censemble communication toolkit and a distributed lock manager built using it. After reading about ZEO and the plans to turn the Zope Storage Service into a replicated service, I thought you might find this work useful. regards, Mark Hayden CEnsemble Version 0.03 Download: ftp://24.142.58.202/pub/hayden/ CEnsemble is a toolkit for building reliable distributed applications. It provides a library of protocols that can be used for quickly building complex distributed applications. CEnsemble is a rewrite in C of the Ensemble system, which was written in a dialect of the ML programming language. More information of Ensemble can be found at: Homepage: http://www.cs.cornell.edu/Info/Projects/Ensemble/index.html Download: ftp://cs.cornell.edu/pub/ensemble/ Included with censemble-0.03 is a complete distributed lock manager (DLM) built using the toolkit. The DLM can be used either through a text-based pipe interface or linked into your application as a C library. No familiarity with Ensemble is needed to use the DLM (all the interface is in one header file). A DLM tutorial is included (censemble/dlm/README). The DLM features include: * Fault-tolerant. Any of the lock manager processes can fail; the system will remain available as long as a quorum (majority) of the servers continue running. * Load balanced: locks are randomly assigned to servers to manage. As servers are added or removed from the system, they will reassign locks to even the load. * Reader/writer locks.

I'm trying to find some information about using the SOAP protocol to communicate with the Zope server. Not having much luck at this point; any hints or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. David Wilcoxen Austin, Texas

We create SQL methods then store them as > properties of the class. This may be what it's choking on. It shouldn't be - SQLMethods don't ever actually assign a StringIO to anything but transient variables. The Results object returned from a query could in some cases wrap a StringIO instance - you don't do anything in your product where Results objects would be stored as object attributes do you? If this were a problem common to all SQLMethod objects then I would expect people to be seeing this error all over the place. Is anyone else seeing this? If you're not storing Results anywhere, it would be helpful to see the str() of the 'state' being dumped in commit() - also to know what database adapter/version you are using...

Oh, %&#()@&%... I fixed that in my working copy, but didn't check it into CVS before building a release .tgz yesterday... Argh. Line 137 of DataSkins.py *should* read: if self._v_status_ is not ChangedStatus: Sorry, everyone. I've checked in this fix, along with the one for Mike's "missing _v_dm_" problem, and uploaded an alpha3 release.

Re: Objet : Re: ZScheduler-0.0.5 problem
by Loren Stafford 20 Jun '00

20 Jun '00

This is going to be hard to debug remotely. Can you help me out? First try getting ZScheduler 0.0.6 which fixes a problem of non-responsive Zope, though there the problem was on shut-down not on start-up. Be sure you have STUPID_LOG_FILE working. Then uncomment some of my debugging statements (calls to loggerr) in the source of __init__.py and Dispatcher.py -- maybe add some instrumentation yourself -- all with the goal of observing how far it runs before Zope hangs. Maybe you'll have to activate one of the #import pdb; pdb.set_trace() statements (in an appropriate place, of course). Also, are there any entries in the Zope log or system log that are seem relevant? The only other thing that comes to mind is that ZScheduler depends on Python's threading module, so you must have a version of threading that works on your OS. I don't know whether there are any "gotchas" with respect to Python threading on Linux (Linux 6.1, I386, Zope-2.1.7.). Maybe someone else can step in and let us know if there are.
