I'm thinking of something like a .zcml file with, e.g.: applicationSettings setting name=name1 value=value1/ setting name=name2 value=value2/ ... /applicationSettings This would then be available in a component as a dictionary. Is anythign like this already available ? You could just use utility, and thereby group your constants into logical chunks. interfaces.py: class IDatabaseLoginOptions(Interface): username = Attribute() password = Attribute() config.py: class DatabaseLoginOptions(object): implements(IDatabaseLoginOptions) username = 'foo' password = 'bar' configure.zcml: utility factory=.config.DatabaseLoginOptions / used: opts = getUtility(IDatabaseLoginOptions) Obviously, this is a bit more work than just declaring some constants in ZCML, but global constants suffer the same problems whether they're defined in Python or XML. Parts of your application are making assumptions that they are there, with very specific names, which are not type checked.

[Zope3-Users] View:for=* and Class
Hello, Is it possible to associate a class with a skin template ? I tried to customize an example (from chap 24 Zope3) but unfortunately even if my zcml is read with no errors, the final view used is the one associated with my component. Is there a way to do this ?

Right, because when a ZPT uses a skin macro, the raw macro byte code is inserted into the the ZPT. That means all TALES variables are bound to the actual view, not the skin. Is there a way to do this ? Define a view class for * that you will query from the macro, e.g. context/@@myhelperview/foo.

Okay, but (stop me if I'm wrong) a template can be associated to a class. Yes, but again: when you use a macro, the macro byte code gets executed in the context of the template *using* the macro. I took your example 8.2.4 (chapter 8.2 Page Template macros) and thought the view class was StandardMacros. standardmacros is something different. It's a special view that lets us look up macros conveniently. Read that section again, it seems you've not understood standardmacros yet. Is there a way to do this ? Define a view class for * that you will query from the macro, e.g. context/@@myhelperview/foo. Philipp I added (just for test) a function foo into your StandardMacros and added into my skin template : metal:macro use-macro=context/@@StandardMacros/foo / And I get : TypeError: unsubscriptable object Please don't quote single exceptions. They're almost meaningless without a traceback. I also told you to define your own helper view. I never said anything about standardmacros.
