One of the victims of the site transition, the web-based browsing of the public CVS checkin, has been resuscitated. A number of people have asked about it - i'm sorry i hadn't realized how useful it is to people, or i would have placed more priority on getting it back sooner! Ken klm(a)digicool.com

ZopeZen listing on zwiki
by Anthony Pfrunder 23 Nov '99

23 Nov '99

Hi, Due to the recent unveiling of Zope Zen on the zope-dev list I've collected the gems into zwiki so that they will be available for others. The address is: http://209.67.167.82/zwiki/ZopeZen. If it is ok, I'll cross-post to zope(a)zope.org after feedback. Cheers, Anthony Pfrunder

Missing and cmp
by kent＠tiamat.goathill.org 22 Nov '99

22 Nov '99

The module Missing has interesting cmp behavior: >>> import Missing >>> b=[5,Missing.Value,0,-3,'c',Missing.Value,0,4,'a',Missing.Value, 'b',Missing.Value,6] >>> b.sort() >>> b [-3, 5, Missing.Value, 0, Missing.Value, 0, 4, Missing.Value, \ Missing.Value, 6, 'a', 'b', 'c'] As you can see, inserting a Missing.Value in the midst of a list, (particularly when juxtaposed with a zero) causes problems with numeric compares. Question: How should Missing.Values be sorted? Regardless of what their 'value' should be, I don't think they should disturb how other values are sorted. I'd recommend that they evaluate to less than all other values... Comments?

Where is that character coming from? Eh? This suggests that self.addr[1] is now broken, which means that it was previously (older Zope version) wasn't working either.. And I don't get the ^D either. Do you know how to use the Perl Debugger? I think a few debugging steps are in order here. Insert the lines import pdb pdb.set_trace() somewhere before the offending lines (for example, at 222), start Zope in debugging mode (so it won't detach from the console). Then, when you go to your site and your pdb statements are executed, you can follow exactly what goes wrong where, and why.

ANN: NotMail v0.2.0 alpha Available
by Ben Leslie 22 Nov '99

22 Nov '99

Hi everyone, After much playing around I finally have a NotMail release. This is still very much alpha but will give those who are game a chance to have a look at it, find some bugs, make some patches and give me any further suggestions for the future of NotMail. My main concern at the moment is to get this release stable and before working on extra features so this is where my priority is at the moment. I have tested this on UW Imap and Exchange servers. Please read the about document for more detailed information. Breifly features are: View MIME message Send attachments Manage messages and folders Use a readonly addressbook (readwrite soon) There are still some rough edges which I would have liked to clean up before releasing but I have exams in the follwoing week so I thought getting something out would be better than getting nothing out. Please send any bug reports to benno(a)sesgroup.net Cheers, Ben Leslie

Heh, I hate to tell you this, Martijn, but to almost everyone reading this, YOU are one of the "real Zope Gurus". I think your Zope Zen level is at least three koans higher than mine. :) -- ========================================================= Tres Seaver tseaver(a)palladion.com 713-523-6582 Palladion Software http://www.palladion.com

I think the following will do what you trying to accomplish: <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('expires', (ZopeTime() + .01).rfc822())"> This does the following: 1. ZopeTime() + .01 returns a DateTime object 36 minutes in the future 2. rfc822() is called on this resulting DateTime, which is a date and time string that also confirms to the RFC1123 standard. DateTime objects don't (yet) support an rfc1123 method. 3. A header, expires, is set with this string ad a value on the RESPONSE object. -- Martijn Pieters, Web Developer | Antraciet http://www.antraciet.nl | T: +31 35 7502100 F: +31 35 7502111 | mj(a)antraciet.nl http://www.antraciet.nl/~mj | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 ---------------------------------------------

getPropertyType returns None in ZClass
by Alexandre Ratti 22 Nov '99

22 Nov '99

Hello, I tried to list all properties in a ZClass instance and check their types. I used the following code (within the ZClass; 'infos' is a custom propertysheet name): <dtml-in "propertysheets.infos.propertyIds()"> <LI><dtml-var sequence-item> - <dtml-var "getPropertyType(_['sequence-item'])"> - <dtml-var "hasProperty(_['sequence-item'])"> </dtml-in> </UL> This is the result: title - string - 1 description - None - 0 adresse - None - 0 modele_lien - None - 0 lien - None - 0 The property names are available but all properties except built-in 'title' are described as missing (though they do store data I can retrieve and display). This doesn't happen when I run the same code on a standard object type outside a Zclass. Also, the propertyMap() method returns the correct info. Eg.: <UL> <dtml-in "propertyMap()"> <LI><dtml-var sequence-item> </dtml-in> </UL> returns {'id': 'title', 'type': 'string', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'} {'id': 'description', 'type': 'text', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'} {'id': 'adresse', 'type': 'string', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'} {'id': 'modele_lien', 'type': 'string', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'} {'id': 'lien', 'type': 'string', 'meta': {}, 'mode': 'w'} What did I missed? Thanks. Alexandre
