Couple of things came up trying to use the current PostgreSQL da and zope 2.2b3. I am working on a ZClass that lets you define and create tables in a database, so I needed to execute some generated sql [1]. 1) I couldn't access the query() method of the connection unless I added our friend __allow_access_to_unprotected_subobjects__=1 to the DB class defined in ZPyGreSQLDA/db.py Is this ok? 2) Re calling query(). The query method only returns a tuple used to create a Results object (which dtml-in would like). So I added a method to return a real live Results object def query_result(self,query_string, max_rows=9999999): return Results(self.query(query_string, max_rows)) Which does what I want. Is this ok? Is this a good idea? 3) I went down several wrong paths until I realized that it seems as if dtml-methods can't return anything but strings. Is this right? 4) Grumble. I had a lot of trouble with the interaction between Results returning data as tuples, and dtml-in handling tuples of 2 differently than everything else. Create a table with 3 columns, everything works. Create a table with two columns, things dont work. Is there access to list() anywhere? -- cary [1] I know, I can hear you saying "Use ZSQLMethods" but 1) You can't subclass them, and b) You can't put one inside a ZClass without a dummy connection.
