Installing This Package

Prerequisites

The installation steps below assume that you have the cool new ‘setuptools’ package installed in your Python. Here is where to get it:

$ wget http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py
$ /path/to/your/python ez_setup.py # req. write access to 'site-packages'

• Docs for EasyInstall: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall

• Docs for setuptools: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools

• Docs for eggs: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PythonEggs

Installing a Development Checkout

Check out the package from subversion:

$ svn co svn+ssh://svn.zope.org/repos/main/zope.app.applicationcontrol/trunk \
  src/zope.app.applicationcontrol
$ cd src/zope.app.applicationcontrol

Install it as a “devlopment egg” (which also installs its “hard” dependencies):

$ /path/to/your/python setup.py devel

The installation of dependency eggs uses the ‘setup.cfg’ file in the checkout. You can supply ‘–find-links’ on the command line to point it at a non-standard package repository.

Running the Tests

To test the package, you will also need the ‘zope.testing’ package, which can’t (yet) be automatically installed. Eventually, you should be able to type:

$ /path/to/your/python setup.py test

and have it install the “testing dependencies.” Today, the workaround is to install it manually:

$ /path/to/easy_install --find-links="...." zope.testing

You can then run the tests (finally) from the checkout directory:

$ /path/to/your/python test.py
Running:
  .............
Ran 13 tests with 0 failures and 0 errors in 0.094 seconds.

Installing a Source Distribution

You can also install it from a source distribution:

$ /path/to/easy_install --find-links="...." -eb src zope.app.applicationcontrol
$ cd src/zope.app.applicationcontrol
$ /path/to/your/python setup.py devel

Installing a Binary Egg

Install the package as a “binary egg” (which also installs its “hard” dependencies):

$ /path/to/easy_install --find-links="...." zope.app.applicationcontrol

CHANGES

Version 3.5.1 (2009-08-15)

• Added missing (normal and test) dependencies.

• Renenabled functional tests.

Version 3.5.0 (2009-05-23)

• The application controller is now registered as a utility so that other packages like zope.traversing and zope.app.publication do not need to depend on this package directly. This also makes the application controller pluggable.

Version 3.4.3 (2008-07-30)

• Make the test for the ZopeVersion bugfix in 3.4.2 not fail when run from an egg rather than a checkout.

Version 3.4.2 (2008-07-30)

• Substitute zope.app.zapi by direct calls to its wrapped apis. See http://launchpad.net/bugs/219302

• Bugfix: ZopeVersion used to report an unknown version when running on a machine with a locale different than English. See http://launchpad.net/bugs/177733

• Fixed deprecation warning in ftesting.zcml: import ZopeSecurityPolicy from the new location.

Version 3.4.1 (2007-09-27)

• rebumped to replace faulty egg

Version 3.4.0 (2007-09-25)

• Initial documented release

• Reflect changes form zope.app.error refactoring
