Hi to all, I'm a new Zope user/developer ... Zope has impressed me very much! Ihave a couple of questions. I want to build a new intranet site for my company using Zope, but: 1. How can I import and use Python modules For example I want to use the function sleep(secs) that resides in the time module. I wrote this code: import time def hello(self): sleep(10) return "I'm Back!!" but when I call the external method bounded with the hello function an error occours!! 1st. Have I to install the time module? - if yes where can I found it and where can I install it? 2nd. How do I have to call the sleep function? 2. I want to build an application that use the database transection to update rows. I use SQL server that support DB transactions. where can I build SQL transactions with Zope? do I have to build a ZSQL method with multiple SQL calls? .. for example: ... begin transaction <dtml-var sql_delimiter> update t_cliente set primaetichinterna = 'mia' <dtml-var sql_delimiter> commit .... Am I sure that the transaction will work (if another user use the same method at the same time)? How can I test if a transaction has been committed or aborted? Thanks VERY MUCH in advance Paolo Quaglia Sitek Spa Italy Paolo Quaglia Information Technology Coordinator Sitek S.p.A. paolo@sitek.it
