Paul, you are right, it is this parameter that controls the number of threads. However I would like to ask how this parameter was set within Zope so I can control starting of Wing.

Robert,

I could be misleading you (and myself) but as I understand, the -t is for that. Here is the exerpt from the z2.py which is run by start(.bat in case of windows)

-t n

The number of threads to use, if ZODB3 is used. The default is %(NUMBER_OF_THREADS)s.

I would guess just use a -t 1 argument and you should be fine. Although I;m not sure if this is what limits the number of python thread.

Cheers, Paul Zwarts

I am using Wing as a debugger. This excellent tool needs Zope to run singlethreaded. Otherwise it dies so miserably that it kills even the Linux it is running on.

Wing uses a patched z2.py where it has a call to connect to wing added.

I would like to be able to avoid connecting to Wing when Zope is running multithreaded.

thanks

Robert

Thanks any how. I think I should be able to ask for the options Zope was started with.

Robert,

I'm not one to ask regarding this, but my best guess is that you would need to hack into the core features of Zope. You'll probably be needing to surf the code in the /Zserver directory, and the like in Medusa.py or something or other. Be patient and I think some of the senior people around this list could offer an educated opinion.

Good luck, Paul Zwarts
