Re: [Zope] LocalFS question
They are real objects, just in a different sense. The easiest way to figure it out is too look at the dtml that comes in the LocalFS source. For example to get a listing of LocalFS folder instead of: objectIds() try fileItems() -- Andy McKay, Developer.

By that, I mean: If I wanted the last_mod time of any Zope object, I could say dtml-var "object.subobject.bobobase_modification_time". However, if you try to do the same thing with a LocalFS object, i.e. dtml-var "localfs_object.localfs_subobject.bobobase_modification_time", you get the error NameError: localfs_subobject This leads me to believe that LocalFS subobjects are not really objects.

You can use dtml-with "localfs_object['localfs_subobject']" dtml-var bobobase_modification_time /dtml-with At least the "Local File System" object does not expose its children via "getattr" (which is required for the usual "." operator to work) but only via "[...]".

No this is by design, as explained in the how-to. Most operating systems allow period (.) characters in filenames, so how would the dtml expression "LocalFS.some.dir.some.file.plus.extension" be translated to a file system path? --jfarr ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
