Hi Frank, It sounds like your SourceSafe tie in could potentially be a fairly complex undertaking. Amos Latteier wrote an example COMObject product that will show you the mechanics of utilizing COM objects from Zope. This might help. And though I know you don't want to VC Zope objects, you might be interested in Steve Spicklemire's CVSMixin product that seems to utilize CVS for version control of several kinds of Zope objects. You may get tips from both of these products. Seach Zope.org for both. To back up the ZODB, just copy the Data.fs file in the var directory. You may safely do this while Zope is running. To restore, reinstall Zope and all the products you're using and copy the Data.fs into the var directory. HTH, Chris Frank McGeough wrote:
Hi,
I've setup zope and zwiki to use for internal collaboration. I'm having fun and doing some useful stuff without knowing too much or appearing too stupid. I've decided to do something more adventuresome to learn some more. I'd like to tie in our SourceSafe version control system so I could do reports that list what has been checked in since a date or label. So I have to get input from the user from this and then use SourceSafe com interfaces to gather the data and put it in a nice format. Is this a good project for zope? It would be very useful for checking progress on projects when I'm off-site because using the SourceSafe UI over a modem has horrid performance problems. Along those lines would it be possible to use the Zope tree control to mimic the SourceSafe project tree stuff so the whole thing could be accessible using a modem?
Also, is there a backup facility for the zodb? I have built a few pages using zwiki and I'd like to ensure that they would survive a hard disk crash or other nastiness. Thanks.
Frank
