[Zope] Unit Testing DTML and ZPT
Is there any standard way of unit testing the two page templating methods in Zope 2?

Re: [Zope] Public CVS Zope won't compile (fwd)
OK. I guess I'm an abductee or something. I've successfully checked out and compiled Zope2 twice today on different machines. There is only one difference in what I did from what wasn't working for me on the weekend; today I left off the -z7 option recommended on the Zope.org CVS_Info page. Was this corrupting the download somehow? Thanks for the response, Michel.

Re: [Zope] ZSQLMethods
Right, Phil. Mental lapse on my part. The nested dtml-ins will be very inefficient because the select on the whole of table2 in the inner one will be repeated once for each record in table1. I was thinking it would only get executed once. The first solution I offered is better especially if table2 is indexed on id, but you're still executing a repeated query on table2. display record Chris On Mon, 4 Dec 2000, Phil Harris wrote: > Depending on the number of records in the tables this could get *very* slow > *very* quickly. > > Surely the ideal would be to move/copy the tables into the same DB. > > Phil > > - Original Message - > From: "Chris Gray" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Tom Deprez" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Monday, December 04, 2000 3:21 PM > Subject: Re: [Zope] ZSQLMethods > > > > Try something like: > > > > > > > > > > display parts of the two records > > > > > > > > > > This keeps it to two db queries and the join work is done by Zope. > > > > Chris > > > > On Mon, 4 Dec 2000, Tom Deprez wrote: > > > > > Hi Chris, > > > > > > Thanks, is this code still efficient if the tables relate to 1:1 and you > > > need to show a list of all records in a tabulare table? > > > > > > eg key, NAME, ALIAS, > > > > > > where NAME is from database1 and ALIAS is from database2 > > > > > > The code below would impact that for every record in database1, I've to > > > query database2 > > > Is there another way to do this?

[Zope] PythonScripts and ExternalMethods
I notice that the CVS tree for Zope2 has incorporated (internal) PythonScripts and gotten rid of (external) PythonScripts. This leaves the old ExternalMethods but without the Bindings tab. Will External Methods eventually include this and present a form for passing argument values when the TryIt tab is used?

Re: [Zope] ZSQLMethods
Just had a few additional points: Should be of course. You'll have problems if columns have the same name in the two tables. You may have to modify ZSQL methods from 'select column_name' to 'select column_name as distinct_name' to get around this.

Re: [Zope] newbie question -- database list/report with sort bycolumn header
Here's a fragment from a table that allows sorting by clicking the header in a dtml method named 'displayTable': ID Product Then feed sort_key into your SQLSelectQuery to use in an ORDER BY clause. select * from table order by You can change the properties of an object in DTML by callling its manage_changeProperties method, for example: will changes the value of foo's bar property to 'New Value'. There are several ways of getting the effect of assigning variables in DTML, but it really isn't meant to have a direct way of declaring and assigning variables. The way you're trying to use an object's properties will, I believe, cause problems in the case of simultaneous users, because it will act as a global variable.

You want something like this in your linking page: http://www.zope.org/"> OR Go to Zope.org Then you need a 'count_and_pass' DTML Method like: and a ZSQL Method called 'increment' that takes 'target_url' as an argument and increments the count for that URL.

I still can't get external Python Scripts to work as described in the Zope Book. I am using the version of Python Scripts from the public CVS. Internal Scripts work fine, but I can't seem to use the "context" object in an external script. def tryContext(): """tryContext function""" return context.objectIds() gives a NameError on context. -- def tryContext(context): """tryContext function""" return context.objectIds() with the "Try It" tab, no form for passing parameters comes up and the complaint is that the context parameter was omitted from the request. --- to the first example above gives the same NameError on context and to the second example gives "a not enough arguments" TypeError --- It only seems to work when explicitly passing an argument like but I thought that context was supposed to be bound to an object by default as it is with an Internal Script.

[Zope] PoPy and Delete results
In psql a delete command returns a count of the number of rows deleted. Is this returned result available to a ZSQL method using PoPy or PyGreSQL?

RE: [Zope] Special behavior or bug?
I've discovered another possible solution to your problem. In a DTML Method change to where foo is the id of a DTML Method. Then within standard_html_header, the variables title and id will refer to foo's id and title.

RE: [Zope] Special behavior or bug?
Oops! I spoke way too soon.
Try but you can't use it in a header or it will
give you the title of the header.
You can use the following code in a header:
although it is a bit indirect and fragile: it will only work if you want
the title of DTML Method 'foo' and it is in folder 'bar' and the URL you
use to get it ends '/bar/foo', but it works in a header that is somewhere
else. You can modify objectValues to expr="bar.objectValues()" but then
it won't work in a header called by methods not in 'bar'. Another
possible modification is expr="PARENTS[1].objectValues()".

Chris

RE: [Zope] Special behavior or bug?
Sorry, but my understanding (which certainly may be wrong, since I don't
fully grasp the ins and outs of this yet) is that the namespace starts
with the client object to which the method is bound. The attributes (like
title) of the method never get into the namespace. This is part of the
design of DTML Methods; they can be bound to a variety of objects while
still giving full access to the client's namespace. This is why the trick
of calling a DTML Document's title from an embedded DTML header Method
works. The effect you want to achieve depends on this distinction between
DTML Methods and Documents.
Another way to say this is that the distinction between DTML Documents and
Methods allows a separation of content and logic. Put your content
(including Titles that will be significant to your visitors) in Documents
and your logic in Methods.
Cheers,
Chris

Re: [Zope] Special behavior or bug?
Make sure that the standard_html_header is a DTML Method and not a DTML Document. Make sure that the calling document is DTML Document and not a DTML Method and it should work. That way the header acquires the title of the calling document. If the calling document is a DTML Method, it acquires it's title from somewhere else according to the Zope rules of acquisition (as opposed to the Ferengi rules of acquisition ;).

[Zope] DTML tags in methods(RE: [Zope] Objection to Python Script Name)
Well, half-and-half (joking/serious, that is). I was in a speculative mood about the extent of the analogies among the different kind of methods. Actually the idea makes a little more sense to me on second thought than it did at first blush. Being able to build a Python Script on the fly might have its advantages. Is eval() allowed in restricted scripts? If not, DTML tags in restricted scripts might make sense.

My objection doesn't really apply if the naming of all the standard Zope object classes is up for grabs. If that's where things are headed then it would probably be a good idea to have a set of guidelines for the naming of parts of Zope.

But there is a difference for the internal methods (restrictions on security and builtins), as well as similarities with other Zope methods (the way you call it from DTML or via URL). I was thinking of the analogy with ZSQL. BTW, can you use DTML tags in Python Script the same way you use them in ZSQL methods?

[Zope] Objection to Python Script Name
I know, I know. It's a little late to speak up, but I think there is a logical objection to this name: inconsistency with "DTML Method" and "ZSQL Method". I think some better options were left off the vote. ZIP Method (Zope Internal Python Method) ZoPy Method PyZo Method ZPython Method I think the name should indicate that it is a type of Zope method and that it is a type of Python function peculiar to Zope.

Isn't the problem your else tags? Remove them and I think you'll get the effect you wanted. As it stands the condition: is never true.

Re: [Zope] Multiple ZODBC sources
I wonder if something like this would work: display parts of the two records Might be more efficient to make one of the dtml-ins a dtml-with and find the item with the matching id. Interesting problem, I wish I had some time to play around with it.

Re: [Zope] ANNOUNCE: Zope 2.2.4 beta 1 released...
I'm using win98 too. I didn't apply 2.2.4 over my existing installation but did a fresh install and I'm running 2.2.4 at port 9673 instead of 8080. I can access both instances, except for the problem that I noted. The problem does go away if only the 2.2.4 instance is running, but in the past I've run two instances of Zope without mutual interference.

RE: [Zope] ANNOUNCE: Zope 2.2.4 beta 1 released...
There's a bit of odd behavior, at least in the Windows binary release.
Going to any /manage URL brings up a blank page in the workspace
("manage_main") frame. The workspace only appears when you click on
something in the navigator ("manage_menu") frame.

Re: [Zope] chapter 5 Zope book - problems with the examples
Make sure that all three objects (navigation, standard_html_header, and
index_html) are DTML Methods and _not_ DTML Documents. If they are
documents objectValues list the folders they contain (none) rather than
the folders contained by the folder you call the method on. If any of
these are Documents instead of Methods you need to replace
"objectValues('Folder')" with something like
"PARENTS[0].objectValues('Folder')".
