I cannot make any sense out of your example data. Since you already have the data in a MySQL table, I would think the best way to find the match would be to make a MySQL query. On Mon, 5 Dec 2005, Cameron Beattie wrote:
I have a large set of data (that will be stored in MySQL) that I wish to match to and am wondering what the best method is.
Assume the following data in table LOCATION_MATCH: LOCATION_ID LOCATION_PATTERN PARENT_ID 10 6 11 4 10 13 2 11 12 9 11 14 1 13 15 2 13
The string 6438 should return 11, 6421 14, 6422 15 and 6499 12.
I've read a bit about btrees on the zope wiki and wonder if that's the best way. However I am struggling with the basics: 1. How do I get the data from MySQL into a btree in Zope? Something like: from BTrees.IIBTree import * t = IIBTree() t.update(context.select_from_LOCATION_MATCH) # errr, no
2. How do I find the matching node i.e. when I want to know that 6422 relates to location_id 15?
Any help or pointers to further documentation would be appreciated.

Cameron
