zope.org/cvs.zope.org/svn.zope.org server move
by Andrew Sawyers 10 Jun '04

10 Jun '04

Dear Zope Community Members, Excuse the cross post, but this announcement is important to all. This coming Thursday, 06.17.2004 we will be moving the the zope.org website, cvs and svn services to new hardware at our Northern Va. data center. Effective 5:00pm EST the creation of accounts on the zope.org website and logging in to the zope.org website will be disabled to ensure that up to date data is migrated onto the new servers. We expect this move to take ~1 to 2 hours to complete. The zope.org TTL and secondary refresh times have been updated to 1 hour. The afternoon of the move, these times will be reduced down to 15 minutes in preparation for a smooth DNS change over when the migration is complete. Ken "I'm evil, so don't mess with me" Manheimer will be handling the CVS/SVN migration and will provide more details on the expected outages early next week. If anyone has questions, feel free to let us know. Thanks, Andrew Sawyers -- Zope Corporation Software Engineer (540) 361-1700

Bad idiom to access optional attributes
by Dieter Maurer 07 Jun '04

07 Jun '04

I just analysed why "AccessControl.Role.RoleManager.get_valid_userids" raised an unexpected "AttributeError". It uses the wrong idiom to access optional attribute: aclu = getattr(aq_base(item), '__allow_groups__', _notfound) This means, that "aclu" is only partially acquisition wrapped and does not behave as usual. Until Tim reported that "hasattr" behaves bad with respect to exceptions, I have been convinved, that the following idiom were correct: if hasattr(aq_base(obj), attrname): attr = getattr(obj, attrname) ... Meanwhile, the best way to access optional attributes seems to be if getattr(aq_base(obj), attrname, notFound) is not notFound: attr = getattr(obj, attrname) ... Please keep this in mind when you push the "Death to 'hasattr'" project. -- Dieter

Re: [Zope-dev] Arbitrary Arguments?
by Marshall Powers 07 Jun '04

In Python, you can declare a function to accept an arbitrary number of arguments by adding an argument that starts with * or **. A *-prefixed argument gets a tuple of the non-keyworded arguments that follow the declared arguments, a **-prefixed arguments gets a dictionary of keyword:value pairs of the keyworded arguments not declared in the argument list preceding it. For example, def foo(a, b=2, *stuff, **morestuff): for x in stuff: print x, print for k in morestuff.keys(): print k, morestuff[k] if i call foo(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, x='a', y='b', z='c') foo will print 4 5 6 x a y b z c My problem is that when I write a Script(Python) in zope, and declare a *- or **-prefixed argument to my script, I always get an empty tuple or dictionary. It's not that im using an undeclared argument or anything, otherwise my script would get a runtime error. It just that the tuple or dictionary is not given any values when I make a call with 'extra' arguments. Does zope just not support this python feature? Should I just parse the arguments myself from the URL? Sorry for the confusion, Marshall Stefan H.

Arbitrary Arguments?
by Marshall Powers 06 Jun '04

06 Jun '04

Can Script(Python) objects be given arbitrary arguments, with either the *name or **name style of argument passing from Python? What about Product methods? I've been trying to get this to work for a while now, and my tests and searches seem rather futile. If I write a Script with arguments foo, *args or foo, **dict and call it with a url like .../Test?foo=abc&bar=def&baz=ghi and print the arguments, the foo variable has the correct value, but the args/dict variable is just an empty tuple or dictionary (respectively). The REQUEST variable does contain keys 'foo', 'bar', and 'baz', but the args/dict variables never get them. Pretty much the same thing happens when I try to do the same in a Product method. So what is the deal? Thank You =) Marshall
