I think that it includes the parts I was wondering for : resusable SQL queries repository, and transaction/session management. Has anyone used this product or compared it with others, and even have pointers to other free products like this one ?

The only possible issue might be execution speed. > Not that PHP is slow, but it can't beat a C CGI. AFAIK you can save the CGI startup costs as PHP is loaded as a module in Apache. If it has persistent database connections (like Zope) then you also save the DB connection setup and so it can easyly beat C CGI on anything but most compute-intensive tasks. ----- Hannu ************ ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 4+ messages in thread

There are Perl/HTML integrator tools like Embperl or Mason. Perl is way more flexible than C and a lot more expressive than PHP. It's also quite fast. With mod_perl you don't spawn an extra Perl process for every apache request because the perl interpreter is loaded into apache (likewise mod_php/Apache). I would say mod_perl/Apache is the swiss army knife of application servers. You find more at http://perl.apache.org Dirk ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 4+ messages in thread

It is a fully integrated web development environment, with a kicking multithreaded server, tcl 8.2 (in 3.0b3), tightly integrated database connectivity, dynamic content (embedded Tcl in HTML -- AOLserver Dynamic Pages (ADP)), and, best of all, a great postgresql driver. Tcl, IMHO, is one of the best languages for web scripting -- perl is a good glue language, but, for some things, the AOLserver dialect of Tcl is far more useful. Plus, there is a prefab community system available for AOLserver from ArsDigita, called the ArsDigita Community System -- while written for Oracle *i, a porting effort is underway to get it up on Postgresql. www.aolserver.com.

My experience is that easy things are easy and difficult things are doable without much effort once you know your way. The learning curve may be a little steep at some places, but the zope.org site helps nicely by having DTML-source links at the bottom of pages > I think that it includes the parts I was wondering for : resusable SQL > queries repository, and transaction/session management. > Has anyone used this product or compared it with others, and even > have pointers to other free products like this one ? This question should be asked at zope list zope@zope.org, there probably is even a faq somewhere Hannu ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 4+ messages in thread
