Thanks to DC, the CookieCutter product can be dowloaded at http://www.zope.org/Download/Contrib/CookieCutter.tar.gz The CookieCutter product allows the storage of multiple data objects of possibly differing types in a single cookie. This is accomplished by storing the objects in a dictionary which is pickled via dumps and sent in the cookie. At the server, the cookie is unpickled via loads and, if desired, copied into the REQUEST namespace. Documention is included in the product's doc string as well as README.txt. This really is a simple product and shoudn't be too hard to understand, improve, and customize. As a word of WARNING, Amos Latteier pointed out to me that this product poses security risks as it unpickles code received from over a network. There is a chance that a malicious user could put a trojan horse into a cookie that could compromise your server. I recommend studying the Python documentation for pickle before using this.You've been warned. Some other points: 1. CookieCutter doesn't (and can't) avoid cookie name clashes. 2. Dictionary keys contained in the cookie but not specified in the CookieCutter object are ignored. (This is a feature!) 3. If you're only storing strings, it might be more efficient to write a method to flatten out the dictionary into a "key<separator>value" like string and store that instead of a pickle. This would also reduce the security worry. 4. Pickles can get really big. You've got a 4KB limit but Be Nice. 5. I can never get my source code to look as good as everyone else's. >:^( 5. The usual disclaimers apply. Use this software at your own risk. Looking forward to comments/criticism. John Jarvis BTW, I couldn't get RESPONSE.expireCookie to work so CookieCutter implements its own (which is actually a modified copy from Request.py ;^). Has anyone else had problems with this?
