What would *you* like to have in PropertyManager and friends?
raise ZopeProject('http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Proposals/PropertyRevamp') We at Hiperlogica realize a lot of you people prefer to write your code in Python in the filesystem. However, we also believe the power of Zope's trough-the-web RAD framework is one of the reasons for its success; more importantly, it's a good part of the reason it works for *us*. In this spirit, we fired up HiperDom a few months ago, and we're now working on ZUnitTTW to allow developers to unit test their ZClasses and even their very sites. Now, we've been taking note of a lot of peeves we have with Properties, in the past one year or so. After all this time, and dealing with some Zope internals, we feel confident enough to propose to fix them. So we're "raising" a Project in the fishbowl to implement these changes. But before we dive in the mud, we'd like to hear from people that really use Properties (and/or ZClasses), or that would use them if they were more powerful. Please go to the Proposal page, linked above, and tell us what you think.

ZWiki's seem a little wonky at the moment so Im commenting here. The one big that would be hugely helpful is a dict property class. Should be quite simple and very useful IHMO without having to rely on TinyTables etc. Cheers and thanks for starting up the project. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lalo Martins" <lalo@hackandroll.org> To: <zope-dev@zope.org> Sent: Sunday, May 27, 2001 4:38 PM Subject: [Zope-dev] What would *you* like to have in PropertyManager and friends?

I knew I'd forget something ;-) Yup, a dict-type property would be might fine :-) ...and how about a list-of-objects type too? Hurm, actually, I think that's just about all the python base-types covered ;-) cheers, Chris
