This may be true for some definition of soon. However, we're very 
happy that a student has applied for a GSoC project dealing with this 
issue. So hopefully after this summer (~August) Python 2.5 will be 
supported.




I would say that (~August) would be justified as not any time soon. 
That said, I didn't mean for it to be an indefinite time and I am glad a 
project in GSoC is facilitating it.

Now, where should we start with it in Zope3 to connect it to an RDBMS?
We do mostly SQL/RDBMS.  We have tried ZAlchmey, and SQLOs, but we find 
them both a bit limiting and simultaneous complex to get them to work 
they way we wanted.  In general when one develops and RDBMS application 
of any size, the database structure can get very complex.  In order to 
integrate them into Zope 3 just right, it's best to manually code the 
containers and objects.  We have been able to simplify the process quite 
a bit and we are very happy with it.  It's amazing scalable.If you 
do decide to go this way, I would be glad to share our RBDMS package and 
procedures.  We've developed some guidelines to improve development.  We 
use MySQL exclusively.




Do I take this to mean you are just using SQL and not any integrated 
Z3 solution? I ask because I have Oracle databases at work and would 
like to try Z3 out with that. I have no problem doing my own SQL (I kind 
of prefer it).

It's not XML that is case sensitive, it is python !
You get the same error if you try to import Icontainer in python (what

Thanks Christian. Do you know when Python 2.5 will be supported? I just

It will probably be a while.  2.5 includes some changes that will
require some of Zope's security machinery to be updated.



Oh I see.

or 2.5 on it.


Why not install both?


I could I guess but I really don't want to mess with 3 Python 
implementations on my system.


I think I will do 2.4.4 for now and put Zope on there when it is updated 
in January. In looking at the changes in 2.5 it doesn't have anything 
compelling to me (although I like the unified try/except/finally).


When Zope moves up to support 2.5 I will just move everything up to 
Python 2.5.

You can use python 2.4.3 to work around that.

and then Python reacts that readline should have max
one argument, but it gets two. By correcting it to
   line = self.fp.readline()

everything works well.

Have anybody else had this problem?

You should report this in the Zope 3 collector,
http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope3-dev.

It looks like Zope's file stream object that it passes to
the CGI module needs to grow a maximum size.

I had the same problem on Debian GNU/Linux.
Problem is due to a security patch applied on cgi.py in Debian's
unstable release.


I've fixed this bug a couple of weeks ago.  It was
http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope3-dev/535

(It's not marked as resolved, because the Zope file stream object
discards the maximum size, circumventing the CGI security patch, and
that's because Twisted's file stream object doesn't accept a maximum
size).


I wonder if a newer version of twisted fixes this.

I wonder why we aren't using 2.2.

Jim

I agree with Martin. I had to read Philipp's response to remember what crud 
stood for. For us in the Zope community this is such a non-issue in 98% of 
the cases, that we are not familiar with this sort of terminology and 
discussion.




That is okay. Sometimes I forget that people have different 
experiencesin the software arena. I didn't take Martin's response in 
any way except to mean I need to be more verbose in my questions and not 
assume stuff like everyone knows what CRUD is.


While the ZODB looks like a great example my question should have been:

I am using Oracle at work and I am looking into using Z3 as the 
solution but I was wondering if there was an example of creating a CRUD 
(Create, Read, Update, Delete) application that is prevelant in 
Turbogears, Django and the like. The example they use is a wiki

Does this imply you *need* or *want* to use it for a web application? If 
you don't have to, consider alternatives such as Zope's object store 
(ZODB).




That would be subjective I guess. I would *want* to use Oracle since we 
have an enterprise license for it and that is probably the best way to 
store the data for posterity. I guess I can use the ZODB and then if I 
ever have to leave the project or something I could just write a 
conversion script.



and I am looking into using Z3 as the solution


Solution to what?


but I was wondering if there was an example of creating a CRUD
(Create, Read, Update, Delete) application that is prevelant in

Well, most of the time we don't think in terms of CRUD, even though we 
might be doing it.


Ah, well I guess I will have to unlearn what I have learned.  : )



Zope is about objects. Where these objects come from doesnt' really 
matter to Zope. They can come from Zope's object store, they can also 
come from a relational database. Doesn't matter. In Zope you create 
objects, you modify them and you display them.



The example they use is a wiki application where the add, modify and
delete simple wiki entries.


There's a similar example for Zope 3:
