create problems with 2.0.0a4

I have been having problems with create from the Zope verion 2.0.0a4. Here are the methods I have tried: Inside the create_WRTable: create table WRTable( numruns decimal(4,0), lastrun datetime ) The syntax passes, but it complains upon tests or execution, saying: Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: SyntaxError Error Value: unexpected token sequence.near :: 'e(\012 numruns'*' decimal(4,0), ' ****************************** current state = 77 expects: ',', 'UNION', 'FLOAT', 'FROM', 'GROUP', 'DESC', 'ORDER', 'WHERE', 'AS', 'IN', 'INTERSECT', 'ASC', '*', '+', ')', '/', 'EXCEPT', '-', 'AND', 'VARCHAR', '*', ';', 'INTEGER', 'NOT', '>', 'OR', '=', 'BETWEEN', 'HAVING', '<', ('nomatch1',) current token = ((-8, 'user_defined_name'), 'DECIMAL') Here's it's traceback: Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.0a4-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 256, in publish_module File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.0a4-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 161, in publish File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.0a4-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 154, in mapply (Object: WebSolveInit) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.0a4-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 98, in call_object (Object: WebSolveInit) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.0a4-src/lib/python/OFS/DTMLDocument.py, line 170, in __call__ (Object: WebSolveInit) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.0a4-src/lib/python/OFS/DTMLDocument.py, line 165, in __call__ (Object: WebSolveInit) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.0a4-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 502, in __call__ (Object: WebSolveInit) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.0a4-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_Util.py, line 315, in eval (Object: create_WRTable()) File <string>, line 0, in ?

Alastair, > > I see from a message you sent to the Zope mailing list that you are an > expert with Ty Sarna's Calendar. Flatery will get you everywhere.;^) I figured it all out because Ty (as all of Zope is) made it Open Source! Thanks again Ty. Actually I consider myself a novice with the calendar because I still can't get it to change color.;) But the Catalog is something I've been working with for a bit. >What might I conceivably > put into my DTML documents that would replace the lines in your exampe code > that go: > >  > This line only gets me the objects that "belong" (have a property named 'recruiter' that has the user name stored in it of the person who 'owns' it) to that person.

The "date" is a property of the calendar tag. Incidentally, the whole ownership thing will be *much* easierr and consistant when the Zope Portal Toolkit comes out in a bit. The Owner role already exists, but I haven't got around to messing with it. Happy Zoping, Jason Spisak webmaster(a)mtear.com

You would need to make the object an ObjectManager, and have it's constructor instantiate an index_html DTML Object in each instance of your ZClass. This is a point of confusion alot of people make. They think that the things they put in the 'Methods' tab should show up in instances of their objects like subobjects in a folder. This is not the case. Objects in the Methods view are methods of the object. If you want a user to be able to edit a method, you either have to build your own editing interface (using methods) or make the object an ObjectManager to contain editable objects (like DTML Documents). -Michel

> one question I haven't had time to investigate - if a ZClass includes > External methods, how should these be packaged up? > > Anthony If you use the "distribution" tab to make a through-the-web product distribution, that will be handled automagically by the distribution builder. If you plan to just export/import into another installation, you will need to make sure that any .py files used by external methods in the product get installed into the new installation's Extensions directory.

The UUID algorithm also includes a guard against > backward-moving clocks. If this becomes a serious problem, we can revisit this, but there are some different goals involved here. Also, a MAC address is not portably accessible across all platforms for Python, so we'd have to develop yet another extension of questionable value to its intended goal. Once we have a few hundred million Zope users, we can see if we have any real collision domain.

Hi! I've been wondering what authorization does one need for submitting a new item? (I'm not talking about the password enabled direct publishing of items, just submitting an item for review.) www.zope.org asks for Basic Auth for me.

Assignment to Properties

Hi. I hope a simple question : How can I assign a value to a property from a DTML-Method.  is not the right way. prop1 is a int property of the folder containing the DTML-Method. Thanks a lot.
