Hi,
I am facing a basic problem with Zope that I'm unable to solve.
I want to embed a java applet (jar) in my zope product. The jar file lives as "<Product Basedir>/www/foo.jar" on the filesystem. I want to make this available as "<Product Instance Dir>/foo.jar" inside zope.
To include ZPT files, I'm able to do -
from Products.PageTemplates.PageTemplateFile import PageTemplateFile ... class Foo(Folder): ... index_html = PageTemplateFile('zpt/index_html', globals())
and make zpt files available inside zope. How can I do the same for arbitrary files such as java archives and others?
I don't know how to use the "File" object for this purpose. Can someone please help?
For Images you can use from Globals import ImageFile file=ImageFile('www/image.gif', globals()) I guess you can use the FS* object from CMF Core to add other types of files, but I haven't tried it my self. Of course the CMF also includes DirectoryView and there is a standalone version of CMFs external file management that's called FileSystemSite (I think?) This is a solution that import whole directories at a time. You could also write you own custom version of ImageFile, the code (in App/ImageFile.py) isn't specialy complex.
