Hi. I'm trying to run Zope on FreeBSD 4.x-STABLE, with little success so far. :(
What I need to know most is if Zope can support a database application with a sort of meta-definition of the database structure, so I can easily create definitions of forms (that are to be filled in by an end-user) in form-configuration files.
In those form-configuration files, field and input-restrictions should be listed for any given table/view of/to the database. After that I need an engine to parse those form-configuration files into an HTML window that actually allows editing of the database content..
In short, I need a replacement for Microsoft Access ;-)
Question: can zope do this, and if so, where is it documented?
PS a reporting engine (a-la M$ Access) would come in handy very much, too.
ZDatabaseTool is what you are looking for. You can find it at: http://www.easyleading.org There is a online demo of version 0.1.0b1. The current development version is 0.6.2b21 ;-) The full featured Product including the Wizards will be released in the next few days. Feel free to reply privately if you want me to send the current source code 2U.
