Has anyone used Zope to act as a Tuxedo client?

Is anyone interested in doing this?

Mostly it means creating a python extension that acts as a Tuxedo client, and then integrating that into Zope as a ZClass or Product or something.

Writing python extension should not be hard, but Tuxedo used to have

I got partway through using SWIG for client wrappers, but I haven't had time to actually run them yet. Soon I hope. The more interesting part is to have a Tuxedo server that registers services and fires off python code to execute the services. You have to start a Python interpreter and call it from C. It seems fully documented, and not too much more complicated than doing the same thing from TCL.

problems in multithreaded environment. Check whether Tuxedo client works

You are right. It did cause problems in a multi-threaded environment. I'll refrain from recounting my HP/UX horror story here...

in multithreaded program before further attempts (I do not know how does it look now, I used Tuxedo ~ 2 years ago).

The current documentation says that the current version (7.1) is thread safe. I have yet to test this out. Soon, I hope. You can download a copy for Linux from www.bea.com if anyone is interested. -- cary
