Hi, everybody: I have the following problem: when I execute a select sum sentence under zope the result value is an integer althought the column type is float. For example: select sum(hours) from task where id_resource=14 returns 4 under zope but if I test it under sql_plus it returns 4.5 Does anybody have any idea? I´m using an Oracle 8i database conected to zope with ZOracle DA Product Alejandro Pancani apancani(a)topgroup.com.ar

dynamic function binding problem in python product
by zope-mailinglist 23 Apr '01

Hello I don't know if i'm on the right way, maybe there is a totally different way to achieve this. I want to call a function (manage_propertiesForm) with a specific argument but if i put an argument into the action key of a manage_options item it doesnt appear in the management tabs i don't know why ?? I want to create the manage_options on the fly and pass arguments to the same dtml file so i tried to do it with this line: manage_conForm=(lambda cat="contact" : manage_propertiesForm(category=cat)) then I get a "missing doc string" error because every function needs a docstring ... so my question: is there another way to create a function which calls another function with a specific argument ? maybe with exec ? but i

PythonScripts kill Traversal?
by The Doctor What 23 Apr '01

23 Apr '01

I moved some of my favorite scripts from PythonMethods to PythonScripts. It's very nice. :-) But now my view_source doesn't work. It isn't much more than what zope.org has: http://docwhat.gerf.org:9673/view_source/view_source However, it doesn't work for Python Scripts! Example: http://docwhat.gerf.org:9673/breadcrumbs/view_source It is as if it ignores the view_source at the end. Very bothersome. Why is this? Is this something I have to manually include in each and every Python Script I write? Or what? I'm using Zope 2.3.1 Ciao! -- Counting in octal is just like counting in decimal--if you don't use your thumbs. -- Tom Lehrer The Doctor What: Second Baseman http://docwhat.gerf.org/ docwhat(a)gerf.org KF6VNC

Seems some background reading about the "in" attributes are recommended. What about the Zope book or the DTML section of URL:http://www.dieter.handshake.de/pyprojects/zope/book/chap3.html You will learn there, that there is a "reverse" attribute. There are many more - for your requirements of tomorrow.... Dieter

Re: Re(2): [Zope] Problem setting up Ultraseek DA

John Lawson writes: > Thanks for the prompt response. > I can confirm that the Ultraseek server is based on Python 2.0. > > Is there any way to make this work with Zope/Python 1.5.2=3F Zope runs happily under Python 2.0 (and 2.1) - at least, if it is not really confronted with Unicode. If it gets Unicode (and Brian told us that Ultraseek will probably return Unicode strings), then there may be problems with the conversion to normal strings. Most can be resolved by defining the "default_encoding". Some community member (I think Toby) has provided patches and documentation on how to run Zope truely in an Unicode environment. Dieter

The standard "core" UserFolder is not designed to add additional information to users. There are however lots of third party products that support this. Search zope.org. The currently favoured solution is "LoginManager". We use GUF (Generic User Folder). There are many more options.... Dieter

Re: [Zope] Tree tag, python scripts & returning an object

The "tree" command definitely needs ids for the objects as it uses them to code its state. But you can redefine which method is used. If your objects are "Aquisition.Implicit" instances, they need not define the method themthelves but may acquire it. Dieter
