Upgrading a product whose permissions have been renamed can be a pain.. you lose your permissions settings and have to recreate them.
Has anyone seen a script that would walk the zodb and replicate the old permission settings under the new name ?
I did not but such a script would be quite easy. The permission mapping is maintained in an attribute. The name of this attribute is derived from the permission by replacing all non letters/digits by '_', by prefixing with "_" and suffixing with "_Permission". You find the details in "AccessControl/PermissionRole.py". Dieter
