                                     ZenPropertyManager

ZenPropertyManager adds keyedselection type to PropertyManager. A keyedselection displayes a different name in the popup then the actual value the popup will have.

It also has management for zenProperties which are properties that can be inherited long the acquision chain. All properties are for a branch are defined on a "root node" specified by the function which must be returned by the function getZenRootNode that should be over ridden in a sub class. Prperties can then be added further "down" the aq_chain by calling setZenProperty on any contained node.

ZenProperties all have the same prefix which is defined by iszprop this can be overridden in a subclass.

_setPropValue(self, id, value)

source code

override from PerpertyManager to handle checks and ip creation

Overrides: OFS.PropertyManager.PropertyManager._setPropValue

_setProperty(self, id, value, type='string', label=None, visible=True, setter=None)

source code

for selection and multiple selection properties the value argument indicates the select variable of the property

Overrides: OFS.PropertyManager.PropertyManager._setProperty

_updateProperty(self, id, value)

source code

This method sets a property on a zope object. It overrides the method in PropertyManager. If Zope is upgraded you will need to check that this method has not changed! It is overridden so that we can catch the ValueError returned from the field2* converters in the class Converters.py

Overrides: OFS.PropertyManager.PropertyManager._updateProperty

manage_editProperties(self, REQUEST)

source code

Edit object properties via the web. The purpose of this method is to change all property values, even those not listed in REQUEST; otherwise checkboxes that get turned off will be ignored. Use manage_changeProperties() instead for most situations.

Overrides: OFS.PropertyManager.PropertyManager.manage_editProperties

zenPropertyIds(self, all=True, pfilt=iszprop)

source code

Return list of device tree property names. If all use list from property root node.
