Re: [Zope] DTML meth makes Zope 2.4.0 core dump...

3 Aug 2001

      Ok, here they are :

py_sample_script: (without ANY binding)
  return "OK"

dtml_mytest: (DTML Method)
 [...several dtml-in or dtml-with...]
      <dtml-var "html_results_list(
        RESULT, 
        meth_search_fields(), 
        py_sample_script)">
 [...]

meth_search_fields: (Py script)
  return [
    ('Title', 'Object Title'),
    ('Year', 'Object Year'),
  ]

html_results_list: (Py script, taking "results, fileds, converter" parameters)
  [...miscelaneous treatments without side effect for our purpose - I eventually
removed them to test...]
  return container.html_results_list_build(None, context, RESULTS=results,
FIELDS=fields, CONVERTER=converter)

html_results_list_build: (DTML Method)
<table>

  <tr>
  <dtml-in FIELDS>
    <th><dtml-var sequence-item></th>
  </dtml-in>
  </tr>

  <dtml-in RESULTS>
    <dtml-let RESULT=sequence-item>
      <tr>
        <dtml-in FIELDS>
          <td><dtml-var "CONVERTER('', '')"></td>
        </dtml-in>
      </tr>
    </dtml-let>
  </dtml-in>

</table>

What is funny as well is that if I remove the <dtml-let> statement in the last
method, it works. If I replace it with a <dtml-call REQUEST.set>, it DOESN'T
work. But the fact is I really need the RESULTS sequence-item within the second
loop...

Thanks for your help,

P.-J.

Pierre,
Please send the CONVERTER PythonScript and whatever FIELDS and RESULTS
are.  This bug report is not reproducible without them.

(BTW I forget in my previous post to precise I use 2.4.0 on FreeBSD).
Here is a DTML Method :
<dtml-in RESULTS>
    <dtml-let RESULT=sequence-item>
      <tr><dtml-var "CONVERTER('','')">
        <dtml-in FIELDS>
          <td><dtml-var "CONVERTER('', '')"></td>
        </dtml-in>
      </tr>
    </dtml-let>
  </dtml-in>
This method is called from a Python Script, and CONVERTER is a reference to
another Python Script.
The first <dtml-var "CONVERTER('','')"> works perfectly (the script is called
and returns correctly), but the SECOND ONE makes Zope core dump. Urglhh...
Can someone explain me this more than strange (and more than annoying) behaviour
?
Thanks,
Regards,
P.-J.
