RE: [Zope] Using Chinese Characters

[Christian Wittern]

Hi there,

I am using Zope successfully with Chinese (Traditional) on Windows. For
forward compatibility, I am storing it as UTF-8, which is one storage format
for Unicode/ISO 10646 (aka as UCS). It used to work nice until Zope 2.2,
where some of the display got mangled. I submitted a patch to the Collector
to fix this problem some weeks ago, so hopefully this will go away in the
future. Anothere thing is being able to use ZCatalog: I privately patched
the splitter program, which is used to split strings into words. I am not
yet satisfied with the solution, that's why I did not go public with it.
It's also only tested on my windows box.

All the best,

Christian

 Hi Kelvin,

  i was wondering how i can use chinese characters with Zpe on Linux. does
  anyone know how? According to my "mild" research so far, i
 found out that
  Big5is a 2-byte code and is a part of ISO-10646/Unicode. It
 also seems to
  be the de-facto for traditional chinese characters. There're
 also Unicode
  CJK and GB. But GB is for China, which uses simplified chinese
 characters.
  And CJK includes both Big5 and GB.

 classic zope is built on python 1.52 and does not naturally support
 unicode.
 But there is a light on the horizont:

 I have a vision of everything working together for localizing and
 internationalisation ;-)

[Zope-dev] RE: [Zope] Zope 2.2 beta 1 released

[Christian Wittern]

Trying to run the b1 on Windows, I get the following:

C:\Program Files\Z220b1"C:\Program Files\Z220b1\bin\python.exe" "C:\Program
Fil
es\Z220b1\z2.py" -D
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "C:\Program Files\Z220b1\z2.py", line 524, in ?
import ZServer
  File "C:\Program Files\Z220b1\ZServer\__init__.py", line 87, in ?
from medusa import max_sockets, asyncore
ImportError: No module named medusa


Throwing an empty __init__.py file into $Zope/ZServer/medusa solved the
problem for me.

Zope 220b1 looks great!
