Getting ZClass propertysheets information
by Oscar Picasso 24 Mar '00

24 Mar '00

HI, How to get information about a ZClass property sheet from outdside the ZClass? The goal is to create a "myzclass_addForm" that generate automatically the input fields for the ZClass propertysheets. In tried this: /Control_Panel/Products/MyProduct myzclass myzclass_addForm myzclass_addPermission myzclass_factory I just modified "myzclass_addForm" to add: <dtml-in "ebook.propertysheets.common.mypropertysheet.propertyMap()"> ...stuff to generate the input for each property.... </dtml-in> It worked fine when I called "myclass_addForm" by clicking on the "View" tab of the myzclass_addForm management screen. However if I try to add a MyZClass instance from anywhere in my Zope hierarchy, I get the following message: "Authorization failed. Retry?" and if I cancel: "Unauthorized You are not authorized to access common." I tried to change permissions and proxy of my myzclass_addFrom but it doesn't work. Can someone be sweet enough to tell me where I could find docs on how to access the propertysheets elements. Thanks

getUserObject Attrib Error
by Ingo Assenmacher 24 Mar '00

Hi All! Now and then there are strange things going on with my Zope 2.1.4/Linux Intel installation. Ok, here is what happens: http://www.myhost.de:8080 raises a Zope Error (Attribute Error, getUserObject) http://www.myhost.de:8080/manage requests authentication and I give as UID/pwd as the superuser's pwd. Again, strange Error-Messages. I repeat (non-deterministic number of times) this and suddenly: everything is ok. What can this be?? Regards, Ingo.

LDAP : add/modify/delete
by Eric BARROCA 24 Mar '00

Hi, I'd like to add, modify and delete entry in an LDAP directory. I've quickly read ZLDAPConnection's source and I guess that fonctions "_addEntry", "_deleteEntry" and "_modifyEntry" can do what I'm looking for, but I can't imagine how ! :) I've tried a LDAPlink.addEntry('dn','values') in a dtml-call. Apparently it work, but there nothing new in the directory :( Have you any ideas ? Thanks, EB.

I can't understand why. More general, I'd like to extract all the variables available in a namespace (and if I can do it, I'll can get the list of the fields). Best regards, EB.

determining Owner of an object?
by Darran Edmundson 24 Mar '00

24 Mar '00

A simple question, how can I determine the Owner of a ZClass instance (or any Zope object for that matter)? My users create instances of a Seminar ZClass. I did not create a SubmittedBy property (which I would fill from AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName()) thinking that I could easily extract this from the Owner role. I just can't see how to do it. Cheers, Darran.

what is the easiest way to find out if someone has logged in? I want to print some content on a page and have found a way to tie content to roles, but not to print only for anonymous users.

within the context of an object this might help you: "AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_role('Owner',this())" cb -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Chris Withers <chrisw(a)nipltd.com> Aan: Jonothan Farr <jfarr(a)real.com> CC: Zope Mailing List <zope(a)zope.org> Datum: vrijdag 24 maart 2000 11:15 Onderwerp: Re: [Zope] determining Owner of an object? >> <dtml-in get_local_roles> > >I tried sticking <dtml-var get_local_roles> in a dtml document and got a blank list back even though >I know I've got some local roles. > >Also, where did you find out about this?

ZCatalog and XMLDocument problem
by Chris Gray 24 Mar '00

24 Mar '00

This has to do with Amos's article on using XMLDocument at xml.com: http://www.xml.com/pub/1999/12/zope/index.html The example for finding items to catalog doesn't work for me. When I enter getNodeName()=='entry' in the 'expr' field I get the following error: Error Type: NameError Error Value: Eval I'm running Debian GNU/Linux (frozen), Zope 2.1.4, Zcatalog 1.0.0 and XMLDocument 1.0a5. Thanks for any help you can give me on this one. Chris Gray University of Waterloo
