RE: [Zope] Including a method returning batches inside a page.
hi Dieter For a DTML method(!), "id" is the id of the object of which the method is used as a method. In your case, this is the folder. No, actually -- since 'index_html' is a document, it turns out to be the id of 'index_html'. In some cases, you would use "this().id".

[Zope] Where do I find out about cookies?
Hi Zopers
It looks like I'm going to be using cookies now, and I don't find any
How-To on cookies. What's the most instructive place to look? "UTSL" is
fine as an answer, especially if it points me somewhere, and even more
if it's DTML source ..
The *ZQR* is a bit too cryptic for me. The *DTML Ref* has a bit more::
8. Dictionaries are objects that support looking of data by name
(e.g. REQUEST.cookies['CUST_ID'] to look up a cookie named CUST_ID).
Dictionaries have has_key methods for checking whether a dictionary
contains a value (e.g. REQUEST.cookies.has_key('CUST_ID') ) and
methods keys , values , and items , for updating lists of dictionary
keys, values, and key-value pairs (e.g. REQUEST.cookies.keys() to
obtain a list of cookie names).
.. but I don't understand yet how 'keys', 'values' and 'items' are going
to help me *update* the lists -- it seems to refer only to querying
them, AFAICS ..

T.J. Mannos wrote:

However, a dtml-if "document_id == 'apples'" returns false. Am I missing
something? I've tried _.str(document_id) and even
_.string.strip(_.str(document_id)).
The tag dtml-var document_id gets a value for document_id, and looks
to see if it is callable. If so, it calls it and returns the result of
calling it. If not, it just returns it. This is a feature of dtml-var
name="whatever", which is another way of writing dtml-var whatever.
However, when you use an expression, such as you are doing in the
dtml-if tag, you are writing in Python, and you need to call an object
if it ought to be called.
An expression is something like dtml-var "expression" or dtml-var
expr="expression, which are equivalent. The same goes for dtml-if
"expression".
In your case, you might find that this works:
dtml-if "document_id() == 'apples'"
Or perhaps this:
dtml-if "document_id(_.None, _) == 'apples'"
The reason is that ids ought always to be simple string objects, but
some aren't. There are lots of legacy programs that rely on some ids
being methods, so the odd cases won't be changed for a while yet.
The general answer is to use a special function that calls the value if
it is callable.
You have a choice here. These are equivalent.
dtml-if "_['document_id'] == 'apples'"
dtml-if "_.getitem('document_id', 1) == 'apples'"

[Zope] The tree tag, SQL and what should be simple
I thought this was going to be simple but having read numerous postings on the mailing list and all related HOW-TOs I can find, I think I can confirm I am stuck. This is sad because I've just spent a very productive couple of days with Zope and MySQL making the world a better place. I have a table for chickens. Basically it looks like this CREATE TABLE T_CHICKEN ( ID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT, CODE CHAR(10) NOT NULL, DESCRIPTION CHAR(40) NOT NULL, NOOFLEGS INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 2, TYPEID INT NOT NULL ); And another table for types. CREATE TABLE T_TYPE ( ID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT, CODE CAR(10) ); Each chicken has a type associated with it. At the end of the day I want to display the chickens underneath the type it has ... start the screen up it would say + BIG + MEDIUM + SMALL And the users can then expand to see the chickens available in each category. + BIG - Flossie - Wombat - Hank + MEDIUM - Debbie - Fruitbat - Harold + SMALL - Bob It would appear that I need to feed two things to the dtml-tree tag. Firstly my starting levels (my types) and then the related data underneath but I can only feed one SQL query to the tag. All the stuff I read seems to assume the info at the top level comes from the same file (and from a key id). How do I do this or indeed, is it possible? I have a nasty feeling I am missing something obvious.

Re: [Zope] Zope as an NT service in developement mod

Then double click on the 'start' parameter in the right hand window, when the edit box comes up simply add a -D to the end of the options on the command line. You can also change the port in the same way, simply put something like: -P 8000 This would set zope to use 8000 as the base port for all zservices so http-8080, ftp-8021 etc. hth Phil [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: "Vincent" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "[Zope Org] (E-mail)" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 24, 2000 10:27 AM Subject: [Zope] Zope as an NT service in "developement mod" Does somebody know how to launch Zope as an NT service in development mode (I need to pass the -D parameter) Thanks Vincent PS : I got my answer for my previous question (Thanks again) ___ 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 ) ___ 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 )

Re: [Zope] newbiz : zope connection
To get more information, you would analyse ZServer's log file: "var/Z2.log". It contains an entry for each HTTP request. But if you use ProxyPass like me, there is only the IP address of the Apache Server in this logfile, so there is only one user in the Z2.log file logged. You have to check out the Apache logfile, usually /var/log/httpd/access_log to see the different IP addresses. The logfile-format of Apache is the same as in Zope. -goe- Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ___ 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 )

for 10 days, which caused critical errors, was the first one!
The newest message on zope-dev mentioned that the bug is fixed and will
be removed in 2.2.0. I use 2.2.0 and have never used older version.
Nevertheless, it seems strange to me, that the function containing so

I don't know of any bug that would produce this kind of behavior. It's more likely a problem in communication between the add form and the method invoked by that form.

Re: [Zope] Where do I find out about cookies?

First you must understand cookies independent of Zope:

Then Zope's interface to them will be easier to understand:
The *DTML Ref* has a bit more::
8. Dictionaries are objects that support looking of data by name
(e.g. REQUEST.cookies['CUST_ID'] to look up a cookie named CUST_ID).
Dictionaries have has_key methods for checking whether a dictionary
contains a value (e.g. REQUEST.cookies.has_key('CUST_ID') ) and
methods keys , values , and items , for updating lists of dictionary
keys, values, and key-value pairs (e.g. REQUEST.cookies.keys() to
obtain a list of cookie names).
.. but I don't understand yet how 'keys', 'values' and 'items' are going
to help me *update* the lists -- it seems to refer only to querying
them, AFAICS ..
Search for "cookie" a little further in
http://www.zope.org/Members/ZQR/zqr/normal and you will find not only
REQUEST.cookies but also RESPONSE.setCookie().

[Zope] I think I'm close, but still no luck
Hello,
(See bottom of this message for all the iterations I have tried)
I've created a product called BasicDocument. I've installed it and it
works great.
I've also created a folderish product (called SimpleSite). When a user
selects
the SimpleSite product from the available objects list, thus creating an
instance of that product,
they have an option to create sub folders which contain objects like
dtml documents, dtml
methods, and my BasicDocument product (very similar to what happens when
you instantiate a folder object, you
can have a dtml method created in the new folder).
I am able to have the manage_addSimpleSite function create
DTMLDocument, DTMLMethod and Folder objects but I am unable to
have the function create BasicDocuments (which live in the Products
directory) additionally, I am unable to it create any Products from
the Products directory, such as Local File System?
The code below works great, I get a dtml document, two folders each
with a dtml method in them
HOW CAN I CREATE A BascicDocument, LOCAL FILE SYSTEM OR ANY OTHER
OBJECT FROM THE
PRODUCTS DIRECTORY IN THIS MANAGE_ADD FUNCTION???
Thanks,
Dan

[Zope] Search on ZCatalog or ZSQL in MySQL
Hi, I have a to take a decision to use or not to use the ZCatalog that's because i'm some kind newbie to Zope. Well the history is the following: I have to make a system to store news, so i have to migrate a old system using perl cgi's and perform a search on text files to use Zope as the search engine however i don't know if i have to use a SQL database like MySQL or use the ZCatalog, i need full text search, and ZCatalog fits on the true decision however the current database news is about 350M and i would like to extend it to store images and file, so is possible that at the final year if everyting comes ok it outperforms the 1GB data I read that CodeCatalog.com use MySQL to make their full text search engine, so i think that i can do the same with MySQL using a unique number for each registry and let ZCatalog do a Vocabulary based on the ZClass that get such data? and know how to access the database when someone request a word in the vocabulary based on this unique id? I have a made a prototype in Zope at http://repnet.engendro.com using ZCatalog and the admin console is at http://repnet.engendro.com/admin_html i got based on the ZClass Tutorial from behieve and get it working.

[Zope] My notes from the Paris EuroZope meeting
Hi,
During the EuroZope meeting I was taking notes for my own use, and a
couple of people asked if I would make them more widely available -
so here they are.
Because they were taken during the session (and I've got RSI :-) they
are bitty and may not make sense. They are also only a reflection of
what I typed, not of what was said and its importance :-) so any
mistakes are my fault and I humbly apologise now. Mostly these notes
cover Paul's talk in the morning, as my machine was the IRC terminal
for the afternoon sessions.
Anyway, for what its worth, here you are
--
The meeting:
- 60 People turned up - overflowed the room and it became very warm :-(
- 50% of the people there use Linux as their primary OS.
Paul's talk
===
(PE = Paul Everitt, OSS = Open Source, DC = Digital Creations)
(show of hands) Most people view the fact that Zope is free and Open Source is
the major thing about it.
Believes DC has a sustainable business model for OSS - Red Hat etc. don't.
Lots of stuff in Zope originally comes from DC's work with Newspapers - users
being able to edit stuff, undo, etc.
DC and business model
- DC were spun out of a newspaper consortium who considered the object stuff
"worthless" so gave it to DC when they were spun out.
- They realised they needed to be a service/consulting company - not a product
company - because the market was already done on web application servers and
it would require *massive* amounts of investment to even have a chance of
competing.
- Their first investment was a banker who used the stuff and then called them
to invest. Following that minority investment he convinced them to
release it
all as OSS. The rest is history etc.
- First round investment, spent it on Zope, not DC. DC != Zope. Because then
Zope doesn't appear commercial, protects the OSS nature. They don't want to
dominate Zope, but they want to back it.
- People are throwing money at DC, seems like intelligent money not any old VC
trying to get on bandwaggon. 2nd round of money spent on Zope, 3rd round of
money spent on DC.
- In '99 made no money. In '00 they turned sales on, and all hell
broke loose -
Zope is hot property, "people were beating themselves up in the sales
funnel".
- DC is 30 people.
- Additional investments in DC are on the horizon, which should mean more of
everything for Zope
From Business Partner's perspective will get more formalised etc.
Brian Lloyd was employee number 1 of DC, now product manager of Zope.
His number 1 goal is to open up Zope - make Zope bigger than DC.
Giving other people checkin authority is a big aim. They do OSS
distribution but not OSS development at the moment (because DC do the
development). Therefore number 1 priority.
DC are involved in Mozilla and are getting a good idea of how they run OSS. He
later demo'd the Zope studio, and it looks interesting.
Zope will still have a benevolent dictator model. They come out of the Python
community so will be like that.
Was some discussion around how to run large OSS projects etc.
Big things will happen in the next 6 months. Lots of opportunity,
sky's the limit etc. What do you want in Zope 3?
"The Soul of Zope" - how do you describe Zope, where its going etc. Very hard.
"Focussed on rapid deployment of rich solutions to diverse
audiences". This drives into 3 things... (see later - "More power for more
people", "All tiers as managed content", "Web API")
Objects on the web that ordinary people can walk up to and do rich and
interesting stuff - and then they can talk those objects and do their
own thing.
Diverse - so everyone in the food chain. Things that Work the way people work.
Allow people to recover from their mistakes.
More power for more people - safely delegating control, use web as complete
object system. Security, undo, versions, transactions - all those things that
stop people from screwing things up.
All tiers as managed content. Similar to 3 tier model. The way all
the existing
app servers do is wrong, the way they are doing it right.
Presentation and logic
on file system - hierarchical storage model, messy to admin etc. When you want
to cluster, you need to cluster the file system - hard/expensive. presentation
managed differently from logic (different tools). Different data model for data
("square" - tabular, not hierarchical). So each layer completely
different and independent. Zope wants to treat each layer in the same
way. Will all look and feel very similar. Cluster, manage, search
etc. Presentation, logic, data.
This is a sweet spot for Zope. Gives a scorecard for Zope design decisions.
Tools for developing objects
GoLive 5 have great WevDAV.
WEbDAv will get a lot better.
Python products could be endangered species because its managed in the file
system, which isn't in the "all tiers as managed content" thing.
Web API SOAP
RE: [Zope] Search on ZCatalog or ZSQL in MySQL
the true decision however the current database news is about 350M and i would like to extend it to store images and file, so is possible that at the final year if everyting comes ok it outperforms the 1GB data The limit I think you refer to is the 2GB file size limit on _some_ OSes. So you really have more room than you thought you did, and you may have more room than you can imagine depending on your platform. Some things I would suggest. Store the stories in the ZODB. Store URLs for the images in the ZODB as properties of the story. Store the images on the filesystem and serve them out of apache or some other static webserver. That'll help keep your Data.fs size down and also give you a little better performance. ___ 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 )

It's not required, actually, just recommended, and a filename is better than NOTHING, which is what he proposed. I'd definately be -3 on this one. Actually, I'd rather see BORDER=0 be the default. I've yet to find a single person who wants a border on their images... Chris 1.

Re: [Zope] The tree tag, SQL and what should be simple
I thought this was going to be simple but having read numerous postings on the mailing list and all related HOW-TOs I can find, I think I can confirm I am stuck.

Basically it looks like this snip sql It would appear that I need to feed two things to the dtml-tree tag. Firstly my starting levels (my types) and then the related data underneath but I can only feed one SQL query to the tag. All the stuff I read seems to assume the info at the top level comes from the same file (and from a key id). How do I do this or indeed, is it possible?

Re: [Zope] Corruption caused by 'Pack'?

At first everything seemed to work (I returned to the management screen seeing new - smaller - Data.fs size), but when I tried to preview my pages, terrible things happened - most pages turned to be not available, instead of seeing them I saw zope errors with useless descriptions like 'Zope error: error' etc (restarting browser and zope did not helped). Happily, during the process, the Data.fs.old file was created - stopping Zope, removing all Data.fs.sth and overwritting Data.fs with Data.fs.old returned zope instance to the previous state.

[Zope] Search on ZCatalog or ZSQL in MySQL
Hi, I have a to take a decision to use or not to use the ZCatalog that's because i'm some kind newbie to Zope. Well the history is the following: I have to make a system to store news, so i have to migrate a old system using perl cgi's and perform a search on text files to use Zope as the search engine however i don't know if i have to use a SQL database like MySQL or use the ZCatalog, i need full text search, and ZCatalog fits on the true decision however the current database news is about 350M and i would like to extend it to store images and file, so is possible that at the final year if everyting comes ok it outperforms the 1GB data I read that CodeCatalog.com use MySQL to make their full text search engine, so i think that i can do the same with MySQL using a unique number for each registry and let ZCatalog do a Vocabulary based on the ZClass that get such data? and know how to access the database when someone request a word in the vocabulary based on this unique id? I have a made a prototype in Zope at http://repnet.engendro.com using ZCatalog and the admin console is at http://repnet.engendro.com/admin_html i got based on the ZClass Tutorial from behieve and get it working.

Re: [Zope] Missing pictures
William JOYE writes: I have notified that every time on my web page one picture is missing (with IE and Netscape). When I refresh the page there is another picture missing and the first is OK. After another refresh, the first is missing and the second is OK. And so on... I use Apache and Zope 2.1.6 under Linux. In the Apache log, I have notified that http code is always 304 but when pictures are missing in web page the transferred size is '-' and no '0'. Interesting! Recently, I tried to locate a very similar (though not that well reproducible) problem. It may well be the same problem. My problem really confused me: Netscape showed a broken image for each "reload". When I verified the Zope result with an httplib application (this is a Python module to generate HTTP request), I got a perfect 304 response. No hint whatsoever on any Zope problem. Print statements in "OFS.Image.index_html" demonstrated that Zope received a request with an "If-Modified-Since" header and that it decided that it has no newer image. Thus, it responded with status 304. This is correct. When I did a forced reload (i.e. Shift-Reload), the image was shown correctly. From then on, a normal reload showed the image correctly, too. The forced reload leads to a request without "If-Modified-Since". For such a request, Zope returns the image in a standard status 200 response. I can only make some sense of this, when I assume that somehow Netscape has associated the image with the broken image in its cache. I was determined to track this problem down at home. However, I was unable to reproduce it. This is to be expected when the problem has to do with the browser cache. Of cause, it is different at home than at work. However, many people report similar problems. So, probably, Zope sometimes does something strange with images that confuses browsers, maybe let them associate an image permanently with a broken image in their cache. Because the behaviour you reported seems to be reproducible, we may have a change to determine the cause. If you are willing to track this problem down, I may give some hints about instrumentation and maybe debugging.

Re: [Zope] Acquisition, Not! How?

It is possible -- with an external method. But probably, you should not do it. It may have strange side effects. Zope uses acquisition for access validation. If you cut the acquisition chain, Zope may no longer find the acl_user necessary to determine the identity of the current user and its roles. You may get unexplanable Unauthorized exceptions. Okay, you may try it yourself: the external method: def getBase(obj): return getattr(obj,'aq_base',obj) it returns "obj" with all acquisition context removed. As indicated above, I would not use it, but instead use a test function: def hasattr_base(obj,attribute): base= getBase(obj) return hasattr(base,attribute) I would use this to test in DTML whether a object "O" has itself at attribute "a" which is not acquired and raise an exception, if not.

You have a DTML method "branches". It should determine the branches in the current context. It looks at the variable "tree-level" to determine whether it must call the type or the chicken Z SQL method. If you need to use the chicken Z SQL method, you are in a context that knows the current type.

Queues may end up being implemented simply by having a job state, sequence number, and priority, and moving from one queue to another would just be changing the state. -- job timeouts for escalation, -- e-mail "ticklers" and notification -- job routing based on attributes and actions. -- some sort of api other then HTTP/HTML for external programs to access jobs, perform actions, and update jobs. -- Extra Credit: Graphical workflow editor. -- (what else am I missing) Sounds like a job for Zope, doesn't it.

When a record is deleted from the source SQL table, I want to be able to have that deletion propagate to the child document.. Is a valid approach to iterate through all of the rows of the table, taking one field of the individual record and using that to deliniate the "ID" of the generated document, then writing the others out as HTML through dtml-var tags?

So don't use External or Python Methods. They are a small part of Zope, and are usually used to do some complex logic or calculation. It is not normal to embed markup inside of Python or External methods. I would suggest your developers have a lack of understanding of how Zope operates, and also have a fear of the unknown and are grasping for reasons not to use Zope. If the best they can come up with is External Methods are more clunky than ASP, and you don't need External Methods (not everyone does), then you have a winner. | Has anyone written anything on this topic I could | point them to? If you're really talking Python Products and not Python Methods, then your developers really have no idea. Abstracting business logic into an object which can 'render itself' in HTML if required, and can be customised without using python to render in different ways, is obviously a better idea than logic+markup in scattered files (and I don't just point the finger at ASP here). Quick and dirty, sure you can something a little more complex in ASP a little faster.

That would be very intensive on the server. Imagine if your office file server was set to reboot every 5 minutes, "just in case". It's far better to just check if it's dead and only then restart it. Sounds to me like you need a script to do the following: check if /tmp/zope.pid exists if it does, check if a process of the number stored in there is running if not, start zope if not, start zope.

[Zope] Product release: ExtFile/ExtImage 0.91
Version 0.91 of the ExtFile/ExtImage Software Product has just been released. The ExtFile and ExtImage Products store large files in an external file-repository and are able to display icons for different MIME-Types. The ExtImage Product additionally creates preview-thumbnails from images and displays them. ExtFile and ExtImage basically work like the Zope File and Image products but the (binary) file is not stored inside the ZODB, but in an external file-repository. Only meta data (like title and description) are stored in the ZODB. This prevents the Database swelling up quickly, when many large files are uploaded and thus increasing database performance. Version 0.91 fixes an important security issue, that allowed read access to any file in the local filesystem (readeable for the UID of the zope process). The Product is avaliable at http://www.zope.org/Members/MacGregor/ExtFile/ MacGregor! ___ 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 )

Hi Folks, OK.. I didn't hear much from my last plea for advice... I thought perhaps such a concrete problem would product lots of sage advice... but there's good news: here's another chance! Really Really Basic: If I have a class like so: class Shopper( OFS.SimpleItem.Item, ZPatterns.DataSkins.DataSkin, Acquisition.Implicit, AccessControl.Role.RoleManager, ): """ A Shopper """ # Specify a name for the item type: meta_type='Shopper' and let's say I define some attributes in the class id = 'default' email = '' _passwd = '' Now... let's further say that I want a developer using this class to be able to add propertysheets to instances of this class after I'm finished... to make customized versions of these objects. Also.. perhaps I want to take advantage of the 'automatic' nature of property sheets to provide a usable interface so that users can edit various properties. I was successful in adding a propertysheet using the /specialist/anobject/propertysheets/manage_addPropertySheet?id=foons= technique.. which I'm pretty sure I could also implement programattically. ;-). But when I try: /specialist/anobject/propertysheets/foo/manage I get an attribute error looking for 'a_'. I get the same error when I try: /specialist/anobject/propertysheets/foo/manage_addProperty?id=blahvalue=hhtype=string Any idea what's up with that? But no matter... I can't add 'email' to *any* propertysheet, even those in the ZClass, since it's already used in the class. So do I leave it out of the class and "hope" that someone defines it in some propertysheet somewhere? Do I do lots of: if hassattr(self, 'email') and so on.. in case somehow it didn't get taken care of? I *know* I missing something deep.

WHat your question is, probably, is whether you can you wysiwyg HTML editors with Zope. Some minor inconveniences aside that mostly have to do with file extensions, the answer is yes. As Zope speaks ftp and WebDAV and a host of other protocols, you can easily prepare Zope content with tools like HomeSite and Dreamweaver (and many other tools).

The object plays different roles with different specialists. -- Steve Alexander Software Engineer Cat-Box limited http://www.cat-box.net ___ 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 )
Re: [Zope-dev] ZPatterns bug: Specialist does not implement _PropertySheetsFor(client)
At 09:23 PM 8/24/00 +0100, Steve Alexander wrote: I'm using ZPatterns 0.4.1snap1. The LinkToParentProviders datamanager doesn't work properly because it assumes that the Specialist it lives in has a _PropertySheetsFor(client) method. However, Specialists (and DataManagers) don't provide this method. This stops /specialist/object/propertysheets/manage from working. It also stops _v_currentSheets from returning all the sheets a Dataskin might have. Phillip, is this fixed in your internal version? If not, I'll add the method over the weekend. Ouch. That's not the problem. This is fallout from making DataSkins more "personally responsible"; the bug is in the propertysheet providers that expect to acquire from a parent. They need to be rewritten to work the way dataskins do now, or else configured to find the parent providers, and provide those instead. :( I'll have to take a closer look at this later. By the way, I've been away from the list a while due to day-to-day business concerns and travel. I'm hoping to start the process of catching up soon, but I saw this and since it's a bug I'm going to tackle it first before trying to answer any other unanswered questions that might be floating around out there.

[Zope-dev] Product release: ExtFile/ExtImage 0.91
Version 0.91 of the ExtFile/ExtImage Software Product has just been released. The ExtFile and ExtImage Products store large files in an external file-repository and are able to display icons for different MIME-Types. The ExtImage Product additionally creates preview-thumbnails from images and displays them. ExtFile and ExtImage basically work like the Zope File and Image products but the (binary) file is not stored inside the ZODB, but in an external file-repository. Only meta data (like title and description) are stored in the ZODB. This prevents the Database swelling up quickly, when many large files are uploaded and thus increasing database performance. Version 0.91 fixes an important security issue, that allowed read access to any file in the local filesystem (readeable for the UID of the zope process). The Product is avaliable at http://www.zope.org/Members/MacGregor/ExtFile/ MacGregor! ___ 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 )
