Re: Catalog reindexing in Zope

I am trying to make a python based class be Catalog Aware and be reindexed when it is edited. I basically started with the Boring Product How-To, and have turned it into a Company Product. The class inherits from CatalogAware (someone somewhere said that CatalogAware had to be the first base class). I create my Company instance in another class by calling the constructor with no values, then immediately calling the manage_edit method to update the data. Based on that, I am trying to index the object in the constructor, and reindex the object in the manage_edit. With the code below, the object gets indexed in the catalog, but all the fields (indexes) are blank! The reindex_object call is not working for some reason. (At least it is not updating the field indexes like I would expect.)
(I moved this to zope-dev because I don't think it is a content-managers question...) I'm having the same problem. I call self.reindex_object() at the end of my edit method, but the catalog does not get updated. If I call reindex_object by tacking it onto the end of the URL for my object, the catalog gets updated. Is there a trick to getting reindex_object to work from a python product? I'm using the default catalog name, by the way. I'm running Zope 2.1.6, and I note that there was an exchange earlier about a possible problem in 2.1.6 where from a ZClass someone found they could not call reindex_object directly but had to use a redirect. Sounds like a variation on the same problem...anyone have a clue? --RDM

i haven't looked at why but i've noticed with some of my code, that if i do two calls to reindex_object, things magically worked better. -d -- Adroit | Dyon Balding dyon@adroit.net Internet | http://www.adroit.net/ Solutions | work: +613 98888522, mobile: +61 0414992604

I suspect that the most recent changes in 2.1.5/6 to Acquisition have broken this. It's in the collector and it's on my list of things to do. As a workaround, I suggest calling RESPONSE.redirect('.../reindex_object'). This aparently works. -Michel
Thanks for the note. I'll give it a try. Did you mean to have 3 dots in there or just two, though? Also, I am curious if anyone knows how to index an object into multiple ZCatalogs. I have code like the following in my Python constructor, but my object only gets indexed in the second catalog: self.default_catalog='AACatalog' self.index_object() self.default_catalog='ZZCatalog' self.index_object() Any ideas?

It is an elide, it means "whatever you want". This should be the URL to the object you want to reindex. -Michel
