Hi all,
I'm writing a small application for which I want to use ZODB's
persistence machinery. I have a couple of question, though.
I have read that each thread should have its own connection to the DB.
However, in my case, each thread should be aware of what is actually in
the DB at all times. So I wonder if I can shared the connection between
those threads as long as I take the means to protect it (i.e RLock).
My scenario is akin a consumer-producer with shared buffer. Consumers
pull items from the buffer whilst producers put items in the buffer. The
buffer is an OOBTree along with an IOBTree which gives "serial" numbers
to the keys of the OOBTree.
The other question is about compiling ZODB without using the
out-of-the-box distutils installation procedure. I'm also playing with
Zope and Plone, so I have several instances on the same machine. I think
installing with distutils may cause conflicts with the Zope instances.
Am I right? If so, then how should I install ZODB side-by-side the
consumer-producer application?
Best regards,
Manuel.
