[OT] Subversion and TortoiseSVN on Windows
by Max M 09 Mar '04

09 Mar '04

I know that this is quite a bit off-topic, but I just thought I would share some experiences with Subversion. It is probably most interresting for other Zope developers on Windows. I am not in any way related to the Subversion project! I have developed products for Zope/Plone for a long time. It has mosty been custom products for different customers without too much overlap. But lately it has become easier to repurpose modules, mostly due to CMF/Plone frameworks and the common stylesheets etc. Copying products from one INSTANCE_HOME to another started to become a frail process. I needed to remember to manually copy back from one INSTANCE_HOME to the first when I made updates to shared products. And didn't I also update the same file because of another bug I found in a third INSTANCE_HOME? Off course I know CVS, and I knew that this was a good job for it. But I am mostly working on Windows, and as far as I know CVS runs poorly on Windows. To quote from http://www.cvshome.org/dev/codewindow.html: """ The second way is known as "local" or "non-client/server" CVS. This lets you run CVS if you have only Windows machines. However, due to issues (a) with local CVS on Windows, and (b) with the suitability of Windows as a server operating system in general, we would generally recommend this more to try out CVS and get a feel for it rather than for production use. """ I use Linux on some servers, but for various reasons I am more interrested in setting up the Versioning server on my Windows workstation. I remembered trying to install CVS on Windows in the past without succes, and I also remembered Subversion being mentioned on /. a few times. So I looked around and found Subversion at http://subversion.tigris.org/: """ Subversion is meant to be a better CVS, so it has most of CVS's features. Generally, Subversion's interface to a particular feature is similar to CVS's, except where there's a compelling reason to do otherwise. """ So I thought I would give it a go. It also has Python bindings, and I mean, anything with Python bindings is great as we know. It installed on Windows without a problem, and there is a nice client for it: http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ that integrates with the windows explorer. So for a while I have been using it to keep version controll on my Zope/Python/Plone projects, and it works like a charm. It even feels like a Windows product. It took me around a days work to get up and running from scratch with my most important software put under versioning controll. regards Max M

WEBDAV
by John Poltorak 09 Mar '04

If I'm running Zope 2.6.4, should I expect to be able to use WEBDAV ? Port 8088 is not open so does this suggest it is not available? -- John

What is the recommended location of ZOPE_HOME? I have built it under /tmp and would like it's home directory to be somewhere else. Can I safely move the directory struture to a new location after building Zope? -- John

xml-rpc performance is very slow
by Geir Arne Evjen 09 Mar '04

09 Mar '04

Hello. I've published some external methods in Zope and I'm accessing them using xml-rpc. The problem is the performance. It is very slow (I use it locally) Is there something I can do to speed it up? Thanks in advance, Geir Arne Evjen

RE: [Zope] Quoting Text to valid HTML
by Samir Mishra 09 Mar '04

09 Mar '04

Thanks all for all the responses. I kind of have what I was looking for, but it's not a perfect fit. Suggestions so far: 1. StripoGram - no good, this strips HTML tags, it doesn't fix invalid characters in text to be included in HTML 2. uTidy - great product, unfortunately it doesn't expose all its internals, so it's overkill, and doesn't work for snippets of HTML code 3. html_quote from Products.PythonScripts.standard- exactly what I want, but this is taking me back full circle. What I'm looking for is html_quote without having to install Zope. I could lift the code from the source for html_quote to allow my product to be self-contained (users will not have Zope) but this doesn't sit well with me. Also, as mentioned, it doesn't "replace åäöé etc." 4. Use zope - see above. Thanks for all the help.

Catalog without a Z
by Andre Meyer 09 Mar '04

09 Mar '04

Dear Zopers The Zope Book explains the use of ZCatalog for indexing and searching (http://zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/SearchingZCatalog.s…) However, I want to use Catalog (and not ZCatalog) in my file-system-based product. I use a Folder object to which I add custom objects using self._setObject(id, item). Does anybody have a good example of what is needed for this purpose? What are the preconditions for indexing/searching in this context? thanks a lot for your help Andre
