Not sure, but you could check the SchoolTool project, which I know uses ZODB and twisted, just not sure if it uses twisted.web or not...

This is true only, when you are working with "local transaction mode" (i.e. you are calling "connection.setLocalTransaction()"). Currently, this mode restricts you to a single transaction client. Neither relational databases nor other transactional clients understand this mode. Moreover, you cannot use "DBTab" to "mount" several ZODB storages. Jeremy is working on a new transaction interface for Zope 2.8./ZODB 3.3 I expect that it will fully support a thread independent transaction mode. -- Dieter ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
