I've been trying to find documentation on how to search the ZCatalog from within a Zope product but there is a lack of documentation on that. Can this be done? If this is the case, how can external python products 'see' the context and container objects?
It could look something like:: def doSearch(self, REQUEST=None, **kw) result = [] for resultItem in self.Catalog(REQUEST, **kw) # call object as a function! result.append(self.Catalog.getobject(resultItem.data_record_id_)) return result # get Folders for folder in doSearch(meta_type='Folder') print folder.title_or_id() But this "awakens" all the objects and can be an expensive way of doing it. Modify for your own amusement. Look in the Zope Books API reference for more info. regards Max M -- "Sorry I would Really Like To Help More On This Project, But Am To Busy Doing Paid Work On A Tight Deadline" Max M
