ZCatalog and underscore
by Hung Jung Lu 28 Jan '00

28 Jan '00

The underscore character is considered a valid character for FieldIndex search in ZCatalog. But underscore is considered a word separator in ZCatalog's TextIndex search. This is bad. The thing I am worried about is: if I dig in and change the relevant .c files and regenerate the .so shared library files, for the next release of Zope, I'll have to merge the changes. So, would Digicool be kind enough to include the underscore ("_") as a valid character? thanks, Hung Jung PS- what's is the collector? how do I submit change proposals to Digicool? ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

Try instead pointing it at the FQDN for your machine instead of localhost. Why? Most likely because gethostbyname() doesn't resolve for localhost. -- J C Lawrence Home: claw(a)kanga.nu ----------(*) Other: coder(a)kanga.nu --=| A man is as sane as he is dangerous to his environment |=--

RE: PGP Signed e-mails.

Hi, I am using ( hope to be) SSL for secure connections between customers and a server, what I would like to do is forward credit card transaction information from the Server to a machine behind a firewall at my place of business. I assume the best way to do this is to PGP encode an e-mail and send it to the machine behind the firewall. What I would like to know is this the best method? And secondly has anyone implemented functionality in zope to do this? Thanks, Brenton Bills.

Trapping empty form values ...
by Darran Edmundson 28 Jan '00

28 Jan '00

Someone recently posted asking how to trap empty form values in ZClass constructors. I stumbled across Zen's How-To "http://www.zope.org/Members/Zen/howto/FormVariableTypes" which contains the answer: "When the [name] form field is left blank, :ignore_empty skips over the variable rather than returning a null string as its value." Note, it seems that it's necessary to also indicate the field type, ie., use varname:string:ignore_empty rather than just varname:ignore_empty which will not work. Cheers, Darran.

I'm moving my copy of worldpilot over to use SQLSession instead - that way it's all stashed away in a database. Anthony

It works against our UWash IMAP server, but we've hacked on it a bit.

Hi, Collector is at http://www.zope.org:8080/Collector. BTW, I'd like to ask you a favor. Could you experiment with Voodoo Kludge Splitter.py at http://www.zope.org/Members/kslee/VoodooKludgeSplitter? I guess it might solve your problem with underscore, though it will introduce some others. It is very customizable, at least. If you use Chinese, could you tell me how to tell between a character and a word in Chinese? LEE, Kwan Soo.

What sort of IMAP server you got?

I think that this is something of a killer app :)
