roles, permissions problem
by Dirk Datzert 10 Jul '02

10 Jul '02

Hi, have a problem with Zope 2.3.3 and roles defined by a product X and the role 'Authenticated' which I added to be Zope 2.4.4 compatible. A product defines a roles 'Author' and the permissions are set as neccessary for this product. I also have LDAPUserFolder installed. The logged on user has the role 'Author' and 'Authenticated'. I detected now that I have to duplicate all permissions for role 'Author' over to role 'Authenticated' to make the product X working right. Has anybody detected a similar behavior of Zope 2.3.3 ??? It is totally unbelievable, but the only thing I can guess is 'Auth' enticated or 'Auth'or ? Is there probably a ZODB basic problame with similar role names. tapping in the dark. Regards, Dirk

roles & permissions

Hi, I added a role 'Authenticated' to a Zope 2.3.3 and defined permissions for that role. After that I delete the role 'Authenticated', but the permission settings are still alive ? I would expect that role defined permissions has gone away if I delete the role ? Am I wrong ? Regards, Dirk

Very old version of xmlrpclib.py in Zope has incorrect behaviour
by Tim Hoffman 10 Jul '02

10 Jul '02

Hi I am trying to use Zope with XWT (www.xwt.org) but the behaviour of xmlrpclib.py in the distribution of Zope (2.5.1) is incorrect. XML payloads which don't have a <param/> tag if no parameters are supplied breaks (which is not correct) I have lodged a collector on this http://collector.zope.org/Zope/465 It appears that the more recent versions of xmlrpclib.py have resolved this problem, so could we maybe look at getting the current stable release of xmlrpclib.py in to Zope 2.6 ? Regards Tim Hoffman

Wild guess - check to see if the Daylight Savings Time flag/setting is resolving different for the two zones based on how they are accessed. FWIW Gary

The problem is that it seems not to be called in a thread because It's still blocking my Zope interface! So, what I have to do is to multithread my application.

ZopeTime Warp
by brian.r.brinegar.1 08 Jul '02

Zope Version (Zope 2.5.1 (source release, python 2.1, linux2), python 2.1.3, linux2) Python Version 2.1.3 (#1, May 15 2002, 15:52:42) [GCC 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease) I've got this script which returns strange results: print context.ZopeTime() print context.ZopeTime().toZone('US/East-Indiana') print context.ZopeTime().strftime('%H:%M%p - %m/%d/%Y %Z') print context.ZopeTime().toZone('US/East-Indiana').strftime('%H:%M%p - %m/%d/%Y %Z') return printed The output from this script is: 2002/07/08 16:24:44.687 US/Eastern 2002/07/08 16:24:44.689 US/East-Indiana 17:24PM - 07/08/2002 EST 16:24PM - 07/08/2002 EST The output of the 3rd test case is incorrect. It's as if strftime is changing the time zone. Also the time zone is set to US/East-Indiana in /etc/timezone, yet the default time zone for Zope Time is US/Eastern. We do not want our users to have to manually set the time zone with the toZone method. Any hints? Thanks, -Brian

creating threads in Zope
by Juliette Colmant 08 Jul '02

08 Jul '02

Hi, I have some python scripts I want to use in Zope. Some of them are blocking, so I was thinking about creating some threads into Zope to use my python scripts. Does somebody knows if it is possible and how? thanks ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français ! Yahoo!

NOT in Field and Keyword Indexes
by Johan Carlsson [Torped] 06 Jul '02

06 Jul '02

Hi, I'm messing around with a Plugable Index that can take an NOT operator. (regular field/keyword indexes can just do AND or OR (and of course range). I intend to release my code on zope.org, but first I though I'd write some unit tests. EasyKeywordIndex (as it's currently called) extends keywordIndex and adds three operators 'not', 'notor', 'notand'. ('not' == 'notor') It works by first doing range (i.a.), then doing AND/OR and finally (an the only new stuff) diff it agains all indexed documents. To be able to make the diff at the end I have added a index attribute self._all that is a IISet of all indexed documentIds. Now to the question(s): (I allready answered one of the writting this e-mail ;-) If a document doesn't have the attribute it's index it still is included in the index (as an unindex entry). Why does it work this way, I would have thought that if a document doesn't have the indexing attribute it should be not be included in the index? This would free up allot of references to documents that will never be search through the index, at least in an application where the ZCatalog has allot of indexes that index allot of classes with quite different types of meta-data. For the NOT-aware index it would mean a great different. Instead of returning all documentIds that ever been through the ZCatalog that doesn't match, it would return a much smaller result list. Of course the not index will most probably be combined with other query operators (such as a field of meta_data in my case) but returning a smaller result list would make not indexes more effective, right? I love to get this accepted as a patch for the unindex, I might also have a look at TextIndex and PathIndex, while I'm at it :-) ( TextIndexes does partially do NOT with the 'andnot', 'ornot' opertators, but they require that the first search argument is not not (e.g. "first AND NOT second", not "NOT first AND second") ) Best Regards, Johan Carlsson -- Torped Strategi och Kommunikation AB Johan Carlsson johanc(a)torped.se Mail: Birkagatan 9 SE-113 36 Stockholm Sweden Visit: Västmannagatan 67, Stockholm, Sweden Phone +46-(0)8-32 31 23 Fax +46-(0)8-32 31 83 Mobil +46-(0)70-558 25 24 http://www.torped.se http://www.easypublisher.com

I noticed that CopyContainer.manage_clone doesn't call manage_afterClone. Is this an oversight or is there a reason ? Florent -- Florent Guillaume, Nuxeo (Paris, France) +33 1 40 33 79 87 http://nuxeo.com mailto:fg@nuxeo.com

Copy without taking including the structure
by Petter Enholm 05 Jul '02

05 Jul '02

Hi, I am implementing a kind of Copy function which will strip off the sub level of object being copied. The idea is to copy only the object marked for copying - without the sub objects. (For those interested: I use these objects as special kind of reference objects in my structure.......) In the new copy routine I have added these lines which avoids having the sub level created: [ ....] newObject = ob._getCopy(self) for zob in newObject._objects: delattr(newObject, zob['id']) newObject._objects = () [ ..... ] self._setObject(newObject.id,newObject) # add the object to the Zope database ... delattr is the same method as used by _delOb, so I assumed this is the safe way of doing it. Can anyone tell me if this is not OK ? It seems to work very well .... Best regards Petter Enholm Snapper as www.snapper.no
