Hi! Doyon, Jean-Francois wrote: The componentutility from GS wants the object to be in the root for some reason (Although from reading the code, it wasn't always so?). Maybe I can run a provideUtility() on the objects I'm interested in myself manually ... What is the rational for only

Ah! The idea of more registries is what I'd have to go with I guess ... I'll have a look and debate whether it's worth it :) Thanks for the insight! J.F. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of yuppie Sent: September 17, 2007 13:49 To: Zope-CMF

You can create local site managers and register utilities there if you really need more placeful utilities. Wichert. Previously Doyon, Jean-Francois wrote: Ah, utilities are placeless and not location aware. Hmmm that's too bad :( -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Indeed, I suppose that takes care of creation ... I'm more worried about the expense of looking them up. Right now I do a catalog query every time I was to get to such an object, which seems like a lot of overhead. The componentutility from GS wants the object to be in the root for some reason

I know what you mean, but the problem is that just because it's FOR the site as a whole doesn't mean you want it at the root. Why? Well the main example I can quote is a client that has breadcrumbs on the site, and wants certain things to appear somewhere specific in the navigation of the site.
