Hi Thierry!
Thanks for your lat response, meanwhile things are getting more and
more clear to me.
I got it meanwhile to register utilities through the
globalSiteManager, and I am now very familiar now with zca basics
(though that I have much more to learn of it's API)
There is something totally unclear to me!
I got 2 applications registered in the
/storage/PyProjects/ztfyAPP/etc/configure.zcml
tamer@office /storage/PyProjects/ztfyAPP/src $ ls -lA
insgesamt 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 tamer tamer 4096 9. Jun 07:40 appsx
drwxr-xr-x 2 tamer tamer 4096 20. Mai 16:13 appsx.egg-info
drwxr-xr-x 4 tamer tamer 4096 9. Jun 07:43 webapp
drwxr-xr-x 2 tamer tamer 4096 20. Mai 02:35 webapp.egg-info
that is webapp and appsx
so far so good.
At /storage/PyProjects/ztfyAPP/src/appsx/__init__.py:
I globally registered a class, which definied previously as a utility.
from Services import *
from zope.component import getGlobalSiteManager
from zope.component import getUtilitiesFor,queryUtility
gsmx = getGlobalSiteManager()
VAT = VATServices()
gsmx.registerUtility(VAT,IVATServices,'VAT')
now I want to have access this utility in the global sitemanager from
one other app.
/storage/PyProjects/ztfyAPP/src/webapp/__init__.py:
from myhello import HelloView
from zope.component import getGlobalSiteManager
#print list(getUtilitiesFor('IVatServices'))
gsmx2 = getGlobalSiteManager()
gsmx2.queryUtility(IVATServices,'VAT').Hallo()
I thought it is in the memory. Okay, that the interface is not
available in the other application is clear.
But, how do I access components or utilities registered in a different
application globally, at one other application at all ?!
There are two points about your configuration:
1. It's a personal choice but I never add code inside a ZTFY.webapp
environment. My application code is always written in external
packages, and only referenced in my execution environments (by
updating setup.py, buildout.cfg and configure.zcml).
2. Anyway, if both of your applications are correctly referenced in
configure.zcml and included in the global registry, you should be
able to use any of it's components from anywhere in your code. So my
question is simple: are you sure that the second application (appsx)
is correctly included in your execution environment and registered?
You can check that by using the apidoc tool (in debug mode, using
http://localhost:8080/++apidoc++ by default) and searching for one
of your interfaces or utilities registered in this package...

Thierry

Could somebody of you explain it to me?!
Yes, there are two kinds of complementary registries (or site
managers):
- a global one, mainly build by ZCML (or static) declarations
- a local one, which is made of persistent components registered into
the ZODB. Local components are contextual, so are only available
(by default) to objects attached to the site manager inside which
these components are defined. This registry is mainly specific to
Zope applications so if you build a ZCA-based application outside of
Zope, you will probably don't have a local registry.
Where you are looking for a component, search is made at first in the
local registry, then in the global one.
2. What is the difference between an adapter and a utility ?! I
register an adapter as well the same way as I do with a utility, and
I query those 2 as well. But what's the point there?!
A utility is a simple named component which provides an interface;
it's generally a singleton.
An adapter, on the opposite, takes one or more objects arguments (each
providing a given interface) to return an object providing another
interface.

Thierry

[Zope] local and global site manager, adapter and utility questions
Hi people! I have worked out so far the ZCA tutorial, and there are certain things for me not clear. 1. What is the difference between a global and a localSiteManager from the zope.component package?! How do I have to understand that a globalSiteManager resists in memory, and a localSiteManager is persistent ?! Could somebody of you explain it to me?! 2. What is the difference between an adapter and a utility ?! I register an adapter as well the same way as I do with a utility, and I query those 2 as well. But what's the point there?! For answering my questions, I would kindly thank you.
