what does publication mean in this context? Robert Am Freitag, 17. Oktober 2003 11:05 schrieb Christian Theune:
Hi,
I'm cleaning up the alternative BaseRequest for Zope 2.7 right now which implements a post traversal hook (which will go into 2.8) and discovered a small issue I would like to get some feedback from.
Originally the patch called all registered methods after the user has been determined, but before eventually unauthorized is thrown. Therefore the SecurityManager already could deliver the user object, but it is not available within the REQUEST as the well known "AUTHENTICATED_USER".
Anyway, does anybody see a special reason to call the hooks
a) before unauthorized b) after complete successful authorization
I see that there could be two hooks make sense in there, but can't decide for a single one. (My tummy tells me to go for the one after complete authentication, so we have the complete REQUEST environment as in opposition to site access rules.)
Also Dario Lopez-Kaesten came up with a request for a hook that is called after the publication. Is there anybody objecting such a "post publication hook"? Otherwise I would go for
- implementing post-traversal variant b - implementing a post-publication hook
Cheers, Christian
PS: Looks a bit like I should write a proposal on this ...?
