[Zope-dev] AdaptableStorage
Shane, AdaptableStorage is insane and beautiful - congratulations :-) It could fit a possible project we have coming up where a requirement is to store content in an XML format inside MS SQL Server. Do you have a TODO list? Are there any particularly alpha parts? I would need to get an idea of the risk I was taking on, but if the list is sufficiently small, I love to help mature and extend the product.

seb bacon wrote: Shane, AdaptableStorage is insane and beautiful - congratulations :-) Thanks! I've been working on this for a long time. Two years ago a Digital Creations customer demanded proper object-relational mapping. The customer abandoned us for different reasons, but I feel like the root cause was our inability to fulfill that basic requirement. Ever since then I've focused on this. It took 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration, yet inspiration accounted for 99% of the implementation. :-) It could fit a possible project we have coming up where a requirement is to store content in an XML format inside MS SQL Server. It should fit that use quite well, I think. Do you have a TODO list? Are there any particularly alpha parts? I would need to get an idea of the risk I was taking on, but if the list is sufficiently small, I love to help mature and extend the product. I didn't release the alpha until all the gnarly details were dealt with, like moving objects on the filesystem and implementing complex mappers. The only things left to do before calling it a beta release are: - Implement specific mappers for more Zope 2 object types, like DTML methods, BTreeFolders, etc. - Come up with a good manual cache invalidation scheme. Currently, you can disable the cache (or turn on volatile mode, which is really the same thing) and you'll see immediate updates, but you'll lose a lot of performance. There needs to be a way for applications that modify the database to tell Zope about the modification, so Zope can reset its caches.

Subversion has the concept of versioned properties on a file and, best of all, it has a complete python swig interface. I'm still thinking at what level should i do the mapping, if at Storage level or at user level, like CVSFolder does. After looking at the code, it seems that AdaptableStorage could help on this. azazel ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

[Zope-dev] Effect of DB Writes on Performance
Hello, What effect do ZODB Writes have on Performance? We use Zope in an environment where users are constantly updating and maintaining content within the ZODB.

Re: [Zope-dev] AdaptableStorage
Solaris 9 also has extended Fileattributes From whats new in Solaris 9 The UFS, NFS, and TMPFS file systems have been enhanced to include extended file attributes, which enable application developers to associate specific attributes to a file. For example, a developer of a file management application for a windowing system might choose to associate a display icon with a file. man (5) on fsattr http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/816-0220/6m6nkorp9?a=view See ya Tim On Thu, 2003-01-16 at 03:47, Shane Hathaway wrote: Paul Winkler wrote: On Wed, Jan 15, 2003 at 05:30:58PM +, seb bacon wrote: Shane, AdaptableStorage is insane and beautiful - congratulations :-) It seems to inspire insanity :) kosh and i got into a discussion on #zope about using AdaptableStorage with reiserfs4, mapping zope properties to reiserfs4 properties... finally, a fully really transparent unix filesystem - ZODB solution that isn't a half-assed version of either! didn't get into detail but it seems like it should be doable.
