CASE Tool for Modeling and Code Generation of Workflows
by ratem＠censanet.com.br 19 Nov '03

19 Nov '03

Hi everybody, I would like to know if there is any initiative towards using a CASE tool to model State Diagrams and then generate DCWorkflows automatically. I know Plone guys did something like this to Archetypes. It is not necessary to have a specific tool but a XMI file that can be used to code transformation (generation). So the necessary thing would be a script (or a set of scripts) to generate code from XMI. This solution expose a problem (using UML state diagrams): -How to represent not only states and transitions simply but also associate the specif DCWorkflow´s state objects´properties like "triggers", and "requires permitions" (subclassing? stereotyping?), "variables", "worklists" and "script names"? Would be the solution to use extentions of UML state diagrams´ "state" objects with additional properties (to accomodate DCWorkflow´s state objects properties)? Do you know any case tool that I can extend core concepts to this point (maybe through stereotypes)? Is there any initiative in this direction? regards, Rogerio Atem ------------------------------------------------- E-mail enviado pelo Webmail CensaNET http://www.censanet.com.br/webmail

help with autolance...
by gzhu1＠yahoo.com 19 Nov '03

19 Nov '03

I installed autolance on zope2.6.2 On restart, zope is not responsive. Normally, I would see 6 processes, but with autolance installed, there's only one process running. There's no errors in the event log. TIA! Also, I have zope 2.7 installed on another linux machine, when the memory limit is reached, autolance shuts down zope, but it fails to restart it. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

RE: [Zope] saving data to use in excel later - still a newby

Just a FYI, you could always create a 'page template' that contains the following: <span tal:repeat="item here/getstatistics"><span tal:replace="item/stat1">stat1 goes here</span>,</span> Then, just save the 'viewed' page template to a file.

There is a "csv.py" module around for Python (from 2.3 in the Python core library; up to then separate). It allows you to read and write CSV. Maybe, you should look at the Python tutorial (--> "www.python.org"). -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

My little aquisition misunderstanding...
by Jaroslav Lukesh 19 Nov '03

19 Nov '03

Dear all, Imagine folder structure (at Zope 2.5.1): Method1 Method2 object2 object1 +------object3 Method1 (simplified) return object2!!! <dtml-with object1> <dtml-with aq_explicit> <dtml-try> <dtml-var object2> <dtml-except> </dtml-try> </dtml-with> </dtml-with> It does not matter, how much <dtml-with aq_explicit> tags you define, with only one works like with paranoid-wide spread <dtml-with aq_explicit> tags. I was play with "only" appendics in dtml-with tag, but no success until I make Method2 Method2 (simplified) works as expected and render nothing: <dtml-with object1> <dtml-if "_.hasattr(aq_explicit, 'object2')"> <dtml-var object2> </dtml-if> </dtml-with> Does aq_explicit fail if is used with <dtml-try> tags or I am weak? Many thanks, J. Lukesh

saving data to use in excel later - still a newby
by Kate Legere 19 Nov '03

19 Nov '03

I've designed an online form to track statistics (we were writing them down previously and then someone would have to go through them) Id like the form (on submit) to save the data (probably through calling a python script) collected in a format (text file) that I can then export to an excel file. Can someone point me to an example. My problem is, i guess in the python script that updates and saves the new data. kate

Kate: If you build and HTML page with table containing the data you need (after your input form, with the usual DTML/HTML/TAL tools) then you can point MS Excel spreadsheet to the actual URL that would render that table in a normal web browser and it will import the data into it. There is nothing else to do. We use that technique to distribute reports to users who need some data in an spreadsheet, we just instruct them to open Excel and then "File->Open" and key in the assigned URL to that report page (like http://www.yourintranet.com/statistics/sales_report) you can even key in user name and password as Excel detects it is requested by the web server in case you have that page password protected (basic HTTP authentication only, I suspect) By the way, we use OpenOffice.org 1.0.3 / 1.1 to do the same thing and works great. We have succesfully tried this in the Excel 2000 and XP versions but no luck with Office 97 Excel. Hope this is useful, best regards.

Zope newbie question - document version management?
by davout 19 Nov '03

19 Nov '03

I've just downloaded and started to experiment with Zope. Does the product support version control on uploaded files? The docs suggest it does, but I can't see a way of displaying a list of a document versions from the manager GUI.

Change URL after SQL statement execution?
by RI Dunfey 19 Nov '03

19 Nov '03

Good Morning List. I am trying to do something very simple. I have three files: 1/An SQL statement that I pass parameters too 2/A form that I use to collect the parameters that are passed to the script 3/A Script that is called from the form to run the SQL statement 4/A Page Template >From my python script I call the SQL using: context.MySQLStatement(first_name=First, last_name=Last) It works fine with regards to running the SQL but if the resulting page is refreshed it runs the SQL again. How do I avoid this? If I cange the URL I figure it avoids this problem but dont know how to do this? Any help would be much appreciated, Kind Regards, Rob
