Re: [Zope-dev] Cataloging LocalFS content
I think, cataloging "LocalFS" content would be nice. I have the following problems with it: 1. "LocalFS" defines various meta types: "Local File System", "Local Directory" and "Local File". Only "Local File System" is a "true" meta type which should appear in the available objects list of ObjectManager's. However, I may well be useful, to select the others, too, in for "find" and cataloging. This could be done, but my concern is that when changes are made to the file system this will cause the catalog to be out of synch until you re-index. How does this work with Zope objects? If you move or delete a Zope object that is cataloged does it automatically update the catalog? 2. ZCatalog uses "bobo_modification_time" in its meta table and for indexing. For "LocalFS" content, this is not the best modification time to use for indexing. It would be nice, if "bobo_modification_time" could somehow be synchronized with the object's modification time in the file system. With the most recent version of LocalFS, the bobobase_modification_time should be the same as the object's mtime in the file system. Please let me know the details if you're seeing anything different. --jfarr ___ 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 )

In the case of LocalFS this will always be the only way.

[Zope-dev] Cataloging LocalFS content
Dear Zopistas, I think, cataloging "LocalFS" content would be nice. I have the following problems with it: 1. "LocalFS" defines various meta types: "Local File System", "Local Directory" and "Local File". Only "Local File System" is a "true" meta type which should appear in the available objects list of ObjectManager's. However, I may well be useful, to select the others, too, in for "find" and cataloging. 2. ZCatalog uses "bobo_modification_time" in its meta table and for indexing. For "LocalFS" content, this is not the best modification time to use for indexing. It would be nice, if "bobo_modification_time" could somehow be synchronized with the object's modification time in the file system. Can you give me some ideas how to best solve these problems.
