You could have a separate task handle the CC transaction, and write an entry to a database when it's done. Then have a Zope page that checks for the transaction being complete - if not, it puts up a "please wait" and redirects to itself after 3 seconds. Anthony

Itamar Shtull-Trauring wrote I'm starting to research CC handling, and it seems the way CCVS works is that when you ask for a CC to be authorized, you don't get immediate feedback on success/failure. Instead, at some point the status changes to "authorized".

I need to authenticate the CC, and do different actions depending on the result. Since this is going to be run non-interactively, I don't want to have a thread waiting around polling to see if the CC was authenticated - I need, I think, a new thread that does that and does a callback when the authorization is finished.

Is it possible to mix threads in Python with Zope? Alternatively, the CC handling can be done by a different python program that does callback via, what - XML-RPC? The monitor?
