Re: Editing on the server

If the files are in an object database then kio needs a protocol to read them. If you can open them with ftp then the whole thing is very curious since the project tree can be set up to use ftp. So this explanation doesn't seem to make sense as it is.

Another feature BTW is the ability to set new top directories in the file tree. Typically it shows root and home. You can add a directory to it via RMB in CVS. Earlier versions of Quanta can be set up by eting $KDEHOME/share/config/quantarc. There is a line that looks like this...

Top folders=file:/,file:/home/eric

Add a comma to the end and follow it wiith ftp://user@domain/path. Now you will have additional directories in your file tree, local and remote.

Although the files are stored in an OD, it is exposed through HTTP, FTP or WebDAV interfaces. It actually works quite well, as I can open and save a KOffice file transparently using WebDAV and Zope. That file tree modification is probably exactly what I need, however, as I really don't need the project management features (though they are nice). I'll let ya know how it works out.

Thanks again!

I'm experiencing the same problems as described above. Settin up a new project in Quanta+ (v3.1.2) using a remote-connection to Zope over WebDAV works quiet well, new folders and files are created in the Zope-Database. Only when i try to open a file in the project-tree i get a message ("unknown type") telling me that this type of file cannot be opend in quanta and whether i want to use some other program to open it. Choosing another editor or even another quanta session to open the file works, though. Opening the files directly (without a project) works too. Looks like a small bug...?

Thanks!

Marcel
