- Zope-Dev - Zope lists

REPOST: Cut down on the Available Objects list.
by Erik Enge 07 Sep '00

Hi, all - someone suggested to me that I should try the zope-dev list instead of the zope list, here goes. When I create ZClasses I can make the Available Objects shrink to just a couple of available objects via subclasses and so forth. How would I do this with a Python Class in a Python Zope Product? (Let's say an OFS.Folder.Folder class, which could normally contain all available objects.) Thanks :-)

I've updated the page (http://estce.act.uji.es/calendar.html) following your suggestions, if nobody disagrees I'll release the CalendarTag 0.9.21 with that new look. > > al028823(a)alumail.uji.es (Ibañez Palomar Juan David) writes: > > > Please, look at "http://estce.act.uji.es/calendar.html", there > > are several proposed images. > > > > The only problem I see is when the year mode is selected, since > > there's more white than black it's not clear which mode is > > selected. > > You are right, it's dificult to decide wether an icon is selected or not. > > Of the given proposals, i'd prefer proposal 0, because the other do not > have enough "structure". > > Maybe you could use color, as my Palm does :). > (black on white) changes to (white on blue) on selection. > > jens > > > > > -- > Jens Quade * jq(a)jquade.de * Bonn > >

Please, look at "http://estce.act.uji.es/calendar.html", there are several proposed images. The only problem I see is when the year mode is selected, since there's more white than black it's not clear which mode is selected. opinions? votes? more suggestions? > > The calendar mode icons on the Palm are based on the visible > structure of the diffent screens (one day, one row of days, > a matrix of days).

(no subject)

Ok I'm going over most of the ZPatterns stuff again. It seems simple enough. Yet I can't seem to put a specialist and a dataskin based ZClass in a product folder and get them to do anything persistently. I've been through all of the tutorials and can't seem to get anything to click. You know things like do I create and call a trigger or the propertysheet. When I create the methods inside the specialist I can't access the DataSkin ZClass. I have it setup as the storage class. Is it alright to post these kinds of questions here? Also on the note of subjects and Gen-spec. It seems most of the stuff for Zope like the PTK and ZODB stuff I see is class based and not whole/part patterns stuff. How about a simple Diagram from those that understand it in Coad OOA terms. I know that there is one already but how about in terms of the very basic objects like a folder, specialist, and Zclass.

Test(Persistent) failing with AttributeError: __hash__
by John D. Heintz 06 Sep '00

06 Sep '00

In the following code either I am using dictionaries wrong or I'm missing something with ExtensionClass in general. Can someone explain the best way for me to map from one instance to another? I have tried searching Zope and Python mailing lists and resources for an answer to this question but have become confused by different conflicting messages. On the one hand I have heard that dictionary keys are supposed to be immutable. On the other, I've heard that dictionaries are used to simulate (key is object, value is ignored) some aspects of sets. Which is correct? What I really want is to be able to map a Persistent object to a string. Thanks for any help. John Heintz import ZODB from Persistence import Persistent class Test1: pass class Test2(Persistent): pass dict = {} t1 = Test1() t2 = Test2() try: dict[t1] = 1 except: print "Using instance of Test1 as key failed!" try: dict[t2] = 2 except: print "Using instance of Test2(Persistent) as key failed!" -- John D.

Acquisition in a DTML Tag
by Brett Carter 06 Sep '00

06 Sep '00

I've defined my own dtml tag (i.e. <dtml-foo></dtml-foo>) and I am trying to look up an object depending on the arguments passed to my tag. The python class that defines the tag inherits from Acquisition.Implicit, but 'self' doesn't contain any of the Acquisition hiarchy. It seems like this must be possible, since the <dtml-var> tag must have to do an object lookup somewhere for objects passed to it to render. Can anybody shed some light on this? Is it doable? TIA -Brett

CalendarTag, year mode image
by al028823＠alumail.uji.es 06 Sep '00

Hi all, I'd like to release the 0.9.21 version of the CalendarTag soon, but first I want to change the year mode image, currently it's an "Y" which is not very international, I'd like to see a language neutral image. The interface of the CalendarTag is based in the Palm Pilot, but the Palm III I've here lacks the year mode, I think the Palm VII has. Could somebody send me an international image for the CalendarTag year mode? Thanks in advance, david

Python 1.6, "Expected node type 12, got 312"
by John Hayward-Warburton (Programming account) 06 Sep '00

06 Sep '00

Hi, Clean build of Python 1.6 (downloaded immediately following release notification), clean build of Zope-2.2.1-src; Accessing /manage brings an error in gparse.py, line 293 (ast=sequence2ast) , "Expected node type 12, got 312". Anyone else seeing this? Anyone know what it means? Naturally, everything is just fine when built on Python 1.5.2. And Zope is marvellous. John Hayward-Warburton linux(a)billabong.demon.co.uk

I noticed this too but I thought it was fixed in Zope 2.2.0? cheers, Chris
