Re: [Zope-dev] Migrating from ZClasses to Python Products
Toby Dickenson: Thanks for the advice. I have looked at that before, and having a hybrid ZClass/Python product seemed to place a lot of design considerations heavily in the python base class. I've looked _holdOntoYourButts before as well.

(Its often safer to create a special python base class for each new ZClass, even if that class is empty, just in case) Toby Dickenson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ 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 ) Jason Spisak ___ 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 )

I would run out of space to buffer it. Does Zope do subtransactions now, or is that still just the ZCatalog? zope has done subtransactions for a while, i'm not sure if this predates zcatalog or not ( i assume'd it does). just call get_transaction.commit(1) to save work. and call get_tranaction.commit() when you're done. i'm in the process of writing an advanced transaction how-to which will hopefully give some more enlightenment on this process, but i've been busy with work so i don't expect to have it public for another week. Also, I am running on stock RH6.2 linux and to double my ZODB puts me near the 2 gig file limit. Not as much of a concern as a pain in my neck. Is it faster to modify my installation to allow 2GB or create from xml/export? you could create the python product instances in a mounted db. I looked into this. The webpage is very exclamitory about it's volitility, and yet Zope.org uses it. Worth a shot. do make a backup, i hosed something in my zodb using it. kapil Jason Spisak ___ 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] Migrating from ZClasses to Python Products
And now the big question... How do you migrate and existing application from ZClasses to Python products? I've got about 50,000 objects. Can it be done or am I stuck with ZClasses?

It would be a cool project though.
