[Zope] XML and Zope newbie question...

2000-09-08 Thread Eric L. Walstad

Hi All,

I am just getting started in XML and am trying to figure out how it works
with Zope.  I would like to be able to post some data to Zope in XML format
and have Zope parse the data into Zope objects.  Is this possible?  It seems
like I should be able to create the Zclasses and, when Zope receives the
post, have Zope automagically create the necessary objects from my classes.

Any input on how to do this or pointers to a better way would be fantastic.

Please respond to me directly as I am not currently able to handle the list
volume.

Thanks,

Eric.

Re: [Zope] Java applet with inner classes causing probs in Zope

2000-09-07 Thread Eric L. Walstad

Just a follow-up:

Morten Said:
// Adding files to Zope through FTP doesn't seem to have the same
restrictions.
Actually, it did for me.  FTP was able to upload all the class files except
those with the $ in them (the classes with inner-classes).  That's how I
found out about the problem.

Holger Lehmann said:
// What about putting it all in a jar-file ?
I tried that, too, but Java would choke on running the Jar file that was
served from Zope.  If anyone has a working JAR file applet in Zope, I'd love
to see the syntax they used!

To make my applet work, I had to go into the java code and separate out the
inner classes so that every class was in its own file.  This turned out to
be a lot easier than I expected.

Eric.

Here's the original message...

 Hello all,

 The problem is that inner classes have names like "Parent$Inner.class"
 I'm unable to create a Zope file object with a name that includes the
dollar
 sign.  However, the applet won't function without it.

 Has any one overcome this?

 Yes, the applet functions properly when served from apache (but I need to
 serve it from Zope).

 Please respond directly to me and mailing list as I am not currently on
the
 mailing list.

 Thanks,

 Eric.

RE: [Zope] password

2000-07-30 Thread Eric L. Walstad

Hi Jonathan,

Try this from the console:

python zpasswd.py --username="superuser" --password="TheNewPassword"
"access"

This is documented in the Zope installation files.

Note that doing it this way, the command line will be stored in the command
line buffer file on your system, which may be a security issue.

HTH,

Eric.

[Zope] Incorrect Article: Zope Costly enterprise option

2000-07-20 Thread Eric L. Walstad

Hi Tom and the editors at InfoWorld,
In regards to your article titled
"Zope is a powerful open-source server"

FYI, ZEO is now open source and free.  It's been that way since March 2000.
Is it possible to fix your article before too many folks get the wrong idea?

Here's a link to all the details:

RE: [Zope] Trouble compiling ZMySQLDA

2000-07-10 Thread Eric L. Walstad

Hello Ewald,

Here's a mailing list archive that may help you:

b003585d4/041159ede9899734802568a700259726?OpenDocument

It helped me with the same problem.  Basically, It tells you how to make a
few simple modifications to the MySQLmodule.c file that allow the file to be
compiled.

Hope It Helps...

[Zope] Which PostGreSQL DA should I use?

2000-07-06 Thread Eric L. Walstad

OK, I am thinking about going from MySQL to PostgreSQL for its transactions
and subqueries.  I am curious which DA I should use and why.  I see that I
can choose from:

1. SQLRelay
2. ZPoPyDA
3. ZPyGreSQLDA

Which are you using and why did you choose it over the others?

Thanks for your time.

Eric.

[Zope] ZCatalog, subtransactions permissions

2000-07-04 Thread Eric L. Walstad

Hi All,

I have a user that is trying to go thru the JobBoard tutorial.  In part of
the tutorial he is supposed to turn off subtransactions in his instance of
ZCatalog.  However, he does not have the necessary permissions to do so.

I'm the one that is supposed to setup his permissions, but I can't seem to
find how or where to do it.  Which permission is it and where is it set?

There is no security tab in the ZCatalog folder, so I can't change his local
role for that folder.  I've tried changing his local role in the folder that
contains the ZCatalog folder, but without any luck.

TIA,  Eric.

[Zope] HTML Editors that recognize DTML (was bastardized form of XML)

2000-06-23 Thread Eric L. Walstad

// b. Make it possible for some HTML editors that can extend their tag
// database to recognize DTML tags.
Maybe this is a little off topic, but did you have an editor in mind when
you changed the syntax?  Can you recommend an HTML editor that runs on
Windows that will do this?  I am currently coding DTML in VisualC++'s IDE
using VBScript to paste in the DTML.  This method works OK, but if there is
something better, I'd love to hear about it.
Thanks,
Eric.

[Zope] ZClass newbie problem...

2000-06-12 Thread Eric L. Walstad

I'm stuck. I would like to build a "shiny new ZClass" that has the following
structure:

WebSimProduct
  WebSim Class
'Properties' Property Sheet
  string RunID
Calc Class Object
  'Properties' Property Sheet
PathToInputFile
PathToWxFolder
  Results Class Object
'Properties' Property Sheet
  float gashtg
  float elchtg
  float elcclg
  float euihtg
  float euiclg

I haven't seen anything in the Zope documentation on using Zclass instances
as members of a super class.  In other programming languages I would
instantiate default objects when the WebSim class is initialized.  That way,
to use a WebSim object, all I would need to do is instantiate one, then fill
the properties of the automatiacally-created Calc object and Results object.
However, I'm not sure how to build these default objects in Zope.

My next question is: do I have to build a bunch of products (one for the
Calc class and one for the Results class, for example)?  I can imagine this
would result in a huge number of products under the control panel if this is
the case.  I would like to have just a WebSim product and have all the other
classes defined within this product.  Does Zope work this way?  If not, how
is this class structure (or one similar) achieved?

BTW, I've read, and disected to the best of my ability, the Zope Developer's
Guide and the Searchable Job Board HowTo and Ta'sss Adding ZClass
Instances Programmatically and the Zope Content Manager's Guide 'Turining an
Application into a Product.'  However none of these deals with classes that
contain custom class objects.

Thanks for the guidance (TFTG?)!

Eric.

RE: [Zope] Calling External Method...

2000-05-21 Thread Eric L. Walstad

//  Am I on the right track with this?  Shouldn't it be easy ( secure) to
//  launch a C app on the server and pipe the results back to
//  Zope?  If so, how.
//  The approach I took (above) was recommended by someone else on
//  the list.
//
// I think you should  probably make sure the function works from Python
// (unless you already have).  Use an absolute path to the executable, as
// your cwd may change inside of Zope.  Then when you're able to import the
// Python module that makes up the external method module and execute the
// function successfully, make it an external method within Zope.

That's the frustrating thing, it *is* working from the Python command line
but it is outputting an entire web page, shich may be a problem(?).  I will
compile something that spits out extremely simple output, follow your
directions regarding the absolute path and hard code in the name of the
executable for security sake, then plug that into Zope with an external
method.

Thanks for your help, Chris!

Eric.
