RE: [Zope-dev] Create directory in LocalFS
when you're inside a LocalFS "folder", you can add a directory by simply adding a "folder", but obviously you need the permissions to create a directory in the FS (i.e. the Zope/Apache process needs the permissions)... cheers, Garry On 26 Sep 2001, at 11:59, R.

So no, you wouldn't be using one of its methods to create a subfolder in a LocalFS folder. What Dieter was asking/suggesting, is that you look at LocalFS's management system. *If* it has a way of creating a subdirectory inside a LocalFS folder, then you could just take a peak at how it does it, to find out how to code it yourself in your own product. If, however, LocalFS does *not* have a way of creating a subdirectory through its management interface, then you'll probably need to write an external method that uses python file system library functions to create the subdirectory. I've never looked at LocalFS, so I don't know if that would be enough, or if you'd also have to call some LocalFS routines to let it know that the subdirectory now exists. --RDM ___ 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] Create directory in LocalFS
Dieter, I don't think I'm understanding you. I want to create the subdirectory programmitcally inside a DTML Document. Are you suggesting something like: or (Neither one works. I tried them.) Do I need a more recent version of LocalFS? I'm using v0.9.6 (I think). It doesn't appear that v0.10.1 addressed this kind of thing.
