I'm still a little bit unsure about how to update the GUI when
objects are changed.
I noticed a previous thread on a similar topic which suggested to
customise ZODB.DB.invalidate.
http://www.mail-archive.com/zodb-dev@zope.org/msg01969.html
I thought I could check the type of object, and generally that will
be enough for me to decide which parts of the UI need a refresh. It
seems though, that when I change data from one client other clients,
although getting invalidate messages, are still displaying old data.
I tried subclassing DB, and printing out the object as a test, but
it's always "None" (even when I have a few clients connected). The
code there to get the object from the cache I don't quite understand,
I just copied it from ZODB.DB.invalidate and hoped for the best :)
class UpdatedDB(DB):
def invalidate(self, tid, oids, connection=None, version=''):
DB.invalidate(self, tid, oids, connection, version)
for oid in oids.keys():
h = hash(oid) % 131
o = self._miv_cache.get(h, None)
print o
Is there anything else I need to do/doing wrong?
