Zope and Eclipse WEBDAV
by Nick Bower 05 Oct '04

Hi - I'm trying to use Eclipse to connect to Zope over webdav and keep getting a 401 (unauthorised) on PROPFIND. I'm using the management user and security settings are in order. Does anyone know why this might be and if anyone has had success with Eclipse & Zope over webdav? Thanks, Nick

transience and gc.set_threshold(1)
by Michael Dunstan 05 Oct '04

I'm seeing test failures in transience when running the tests for Zope-2_7-branch (python 2.3.3) with garbage collection threshold0 set to 1. Seems to break in slightly different places from run to run. Here is one example: % python test.py -vv --dir lib/python/Products/Transience/tests -g 1 "" "testPathological" gc threshold: (1, 10, 10) Running unit tests at level 1 Running unit tests from /Zope/lib/python/Products/Transience/tests testPathologicalLeftBranching (Products.Transience.tests.testTransientObjectContainer.TestTransientObj ectContainer) ...

We used it in a setup that each connection created a new Oracle server process. When I wrote "had died", I meant the the process responsible for one session died (going out of existence, usually due to a SIGSEGV). -- Dieter

PageTemplate XML mode bugs
by yuppie 05 Oct '04

05 Oct '04

Hi! There are two annoying bugs that make the XML mode unusable for many tasks: - <http://collector.zope.org/Zope/1101> (i18n namespace broken) - <http://collector.zope.org/Zope/1474> (XML files opened in binary mode) I would volunteer to work on these issues, but for that it would be useful to know: 1.) Does anybody feel responsible for the TAL or PageTemplates module? 2.) What was the motivation for the original code? #1101 looks like someone just forgot to remove a debug assert in TALParser.py. The Zope3 version doesn't have that assert statement. Or was there a reason to disable i18n for XML mode? #1474 is a change backported from Zope3. It was reverted for HTML mode for apparently the same reason why the XML mode is still broken. I guess the motivation was to preserve CDATA, but I don't know that for sure. Thanks, Yuppie

Documentation
by Toby Dickenson 05 Oct '04

05 Oct '04

Im a little out of touch with Zope development these days; Ive been focussing on non-zope projects for the last year or so... I have some Zope documentation on http://www.zope.org/Members/htrd that I am no longer able to maintain, but wich generates a steady stream of emails with questions and change suggestions. In particular, my notes on using squid with zope, and the changes I originally drafted for the Zope Developers Guide on using unicode in Zope. Is there now a more approporiate place to hold this documentation where it can be maintained? Thanks in advance, -- Toby Dickenson

Conditional imports in ZTUtils/__init__.py
by Stefan H. Holek 05 Oct '04

05 Oct '04

ZTUtils/__init__.py contains code like this: if sys.modules.has_key('Zope'): # import things This is causing me repeated headaches when writing tests, because it assumes/dictates a certain module import order. Can this go away, please? I mean we know we are running Zope, don't we? If there are no objections I will remove the condition on 2_7-branch and trunk. Tests pass just fine without it.
