Batchsize looping problem
by Peter Bengtsson 02 May '01

02 May '01

Why is it that sometimes batch sizing doesn't work?? <dtml-in "eatcatalog.objectValues(['DTML Document'])" reverse size=5> This returns the same as... <dtml-in "eatcatalog.objectValues(['DTML Document'])" reverse> ...would do. The start attribute response to my commands properly. But NOT the SIZE! Any hints on this? I have been able to do batchsized loops successfully before and I have read Michaels http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/ZB/AdvDTML.dtml Cheers, Peter

Service NT INSTANCE_HOME - Second shot
by Francois-regis Chalaoux 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hi, The very good Howto at "http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/instancehome" describe a nice solution to start Zope with an another INSTANCE_HOME . However, this solution don't seem effective with the Zope NT service : If you create a INSTANCE_HOME with var, Extensions, import, Products, access entities, and you declare INSTANCE_HOME in start.bat, Zope find correctly your INSTANCE_HOME when you manually run start.bat. But if you start Zope with a service it does not work even if you change the string INSTANCE_HOME in the NT registry ? Is there a sweet solution to affect an another INSTANCE_HOME and start zope with a service ? FR

parsing xml files
by Sven Fischer 02 May '01

02 May '01

hello, i have an xml file being uploaded with a PUT into some folder and i would like to know whether it's best to : a] parse it using xml2zope or xmldocument for example and built a dtml tree of the doc (seems unmanageable if there are *lots* of docuemnts) b] store the xml files somewhere and use an external method to parse them on the fly (would be cool if it could be called from dtml) c] ? i've tried to figure out parsedxml, but i haven't found the link to download the product ???? well, anyway, what would the best solution for this be (the best product ;-) hopefully something closer to beta than alpha since i'm just an almost newbie ;-) thx $ven

RE: [Zope] Passing the value of a checkbox from a form to a dtml- method
by Max Møller Rasmussen 02 May '01

02 May '01

> From: Gitte Wange [mailto:gitte@mmmanager.org] > value of the checkbox isn't passed along to the receiving method. > The checkbox code looks like this: > <INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="isPublic"> Perhaps you have forgotten the value it should have when checked? <INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="isPublic:int" value="1"> Furthermore if a checkbox isn't checked, no value will be send at all. Maybe it would be simpler to use a select? Then you will allways get a value. <input type=select name=isPublic:int> <option value=1>Public<option> <option value=0>Hidden<option> </input> regards Max M

Hello, I have been looking at the API and I can't find a way to create a user programatically. Am I right in thinking that this is not possible using the standar user folder? Cheers Neil Blue

USE TRansaction : _begin()
by Michel 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hello, I'm a young user of zope. I use Zope with SYBASE (we created a Product SybaseDAv2 and it seems to work perfectly). Zope created only one connection to sybase and all my Zope users used this connection to send SQL requests. Now I would like to modify some tables from my database. I need to use transaction. I unchecked "use transaction" into properties of my SybaseDAV2. I created 3 DTML Methods (begin, commit and rollback) which call a ZSQL Method (begintran, commitran,rollbacktran) but it doesn't work because the first user doesn't avoid the second user to modify the same data. By reading documentation, I found there are these methods implemeted with my SybaseDAv2 product : _begin(self) _finish(self) _abort(self) But how can I call them ? I tried : <dtml-call SybDA._begin()> <dtml-call expr="SybDA._begin()"> <dtml-call expr="TM._begin()"> and a lot of other possibilities .... but it doesn't work!! SybDA is the name of SybaseDAv2 product in my example. Maybe this will not work too. So How can I use transaction into Zope ? Could you send me an example ? Thank you very much for your help OFFNER Michel IGBMC France

**Important Notice** for Zope public CVS users
by Brian Lloyd 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hello all - [I'm intentionally cross-posting this because there are a number of folks using CVS that may read only one or the other] If you've looked at the dev.zope.org site lately, you have probably noticed a preliminary Zope 2.4 plan: http://dev.zope.org/Resources/zope_240_plan.html The major goal of Zope 2.4 will be to make Python 2.1 the officially supported (and required) Zope platform. A project dedicated to assessing what that involves has been started at: http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/SupportPython21/FrontPage Enough progress has been made on identifying tasks that we want to start getting some things done. However, this will have an effect on those of you that are currently running from the Zope CVS. We are soon going to begin checking in changes to the head of the Zope CVS that will require the use of Python 2.1. Once we start on the 2.4 tasks, you will not be able to use a public CVS checkout of Zope with older Pythons. We are not going to start this until after Python 2.1 final is out (expected next monday), but wanted to give CVS'ers fair warning. If you are using the current public CVS and don't want to start using Python 2.1, you should either avoid doing any CVS updates until you're ready to migrate or move off of CVS to a current (2.3.1) release.
