ZPT reverse ordering
by Tom Nixon 03 May '02

03 May '02

I want to list items on a page with the newest at the top. I have got part of the way there with this code: <tr tal:define="thelist python:p.objectValues('Kube')" tal:repeat="subitems python:sequence.sort(thelist, (('bobobase_modification_time',),) )"> Two problems with this though: 1) I want it sorted by the creation date, rather than modification date. 2) I need the results reversed so newest is at the top, not bottom. I suspect I need to create a python script to build the list. Does anyone have the code to do this? Cheers Tom

Re: How to use a ZSQLMethod from a Python Script
by Stefano Vedovelli 03 May '02

03 May '02

Hello under zope 2.5.1, I have a folder called temp. In the folder I have a connection object, a zsql method called test_sql and a python script called test_zsql. The script is: from Products.PythonScripts.standard import html_quote res = context.test_sql() for name in res.names(): print name dict = res.data_dictionary() for key in dict.keys(): print dict[key] return printed Works good. Sure you do not have some other issues? Note that I run under Linux and as far as I can see you run it under Windows. regards Stefano On Friday 03 May 2002 13:47, zope-request(a)zope.org wrote: > >Igor Leturia writes: > > > I want to call a ZSQLMethod from a Python Script.

Built in support for renaming multiple titles (a la manage_renameObjects)?
by Michael LaPera 03 May '02

03 May '02

I have a project were I'm generating random ID's and displaying only the titles (instead of ids and titles) though a custom CMF "folder_contents" skin. I want the user to be able to bulk rename the titles simular to OFS.CopySupport.manage_renameObjects. Is there any built in functionality for bulk title renaming or do I need to write it? Thanks, Michael LaPera

Searching Developer: Mapping WebDAV to Drive Letter
by Thomas Guettler 03 May '02

03 May '02

During the last evenings I investigated a little how difficult it would be to write Windows NT Internal File System which mounts a webdav server to a drive letter (like Teamdrive, or WebDrive). This way we could get rid of the problems we have with WebDAV and MS-Office. I is an interesting challenge. The building blocks are already there: neon: (WebDAV Client Library) http://www.webdav.org/neon/ Examples of an IFS (Internal Filesystem Driver): http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/ I thought about doing it myself, but I have a fulltime job. Maybe someone at a university could convince his professor to do this in a project. thomas

R: [Zope] acquisition or inheritance?
by Zanotti Michele 03 May '02

03 May '02

I think inheritance is a "genetic" concept, an object inherits an attribute and has it forever, where acquisition depends on the container the object has, and then on his context. There are several how-tos about acquisition where you can find better explanations, see also http://webdev.zopeonarope.com/ and http://www.byte.com/documents/s=705/byt20010614s0001/ Michele > -----Messaggio originale----- > Da: Bill Kerr [mailto:kerrb@senet.com.au] > Inviato: giovedì 2 maggio 2002 21.16 > A: zope(a)zope.org > Oggetto: [Zope] acquisition or inheritance? > > > why does the zope literature use the term acquisition and not > inheritance? > - Bill > > > > _______________________________________________ > Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope > ** No cross > posts or HTML encoding! ** > (Related lists - > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) >

Bug in Zope-Book CVS
by Tille, Andreas 03 May '02

03 May '02

Hello, im the Debian maintainer of the Zope Book and there is a bug report which can be read under: http://bugs.debian.org/142451 Unfortunetely I do not understand structured text and I'm not able to fix this problem. I guess the authors have currently other problems than fixing this bug and I do not really want to apply the patch the bug reporter sended against the HTML output. Thus I would like to ask wether somebody is sane enough to fix the stx source AdvZPT.stx to get well prepared HTML output. For those who do not know about what file I'm talking about. It can be obtained via CVS-Web from http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/zope-book/Book/AdvZPT.stx Thanks for any help Andreas.

Tracker and Scheduler
by Oliver Pabst 03 May '02

03 May '02

Hi Zope folks, as I saw in the Tracker source, it should be possible to trigger the execute_rules method to tell the Tracker to resend old Tracker issues to the supporters to alert them. Does someone know who you can trigger this with a cron job or so? -- --- --- Oliver Pabst .-------------------------. mailto:olpa@sybcom.de : : phone :+49 681 56600600 : project department : SYBCOM GmbH fax :+49 681 56600660 : : http://www.sybcom.de

What use is BTrees ???
by Max M 03 May '02

03 May '02

I am unshure on how BTrees works, but I suspect that they might be usefull in a project I am doing, so I thought I might ask here. I have an object which hase a dict as an attribute, in which I store other objects. I know this is a relative expensive way to do it as everytime an object is added to the dict the full object will be stored in the ZODB. As far as I understand, the BTree is like a dict. So do I understand it right that if I use a BTree as a attribute instead of a dict, it will only store the elements that are added/changed in the ZODB but otherwise act as a dict? I use integers as keys in the dict regards Max M

whois
by Ulrich Wisser 03 May '02

03 May '02

Hello, I downloaded and installed the whoistool from zope.org. After some little tweaking I got it working. But one problem is left and I believe it is a more general one. The Tag looks like this <dtml-whois "'domain.com'"> or <dtml-whois "'domain.com'" server=whois.internic.net> My problem is the server part. I need to set the server programatically. Means I want to call a DTML Document like this http://zope.org/showwhois?domain=company.com&server=whois.corenic.com I wrote the Tag as follows: <dtml-whois domain server=server> But that doesn't work. The server variable is not evealuated. Instead whois tries to look for 'server' which is not really what I intended. How can I make Zope load the whois Module in it's namespace? In that case I could say <dtml-var "_.whois.Whois(domain,server)"> Which would be perfect to me.
