Weird catalog behaviour

Hi,

is there any reason why a portal_catalog.searchResults() returns an
empty result set when called on the command line but not from within
ZMI? It is the same catalog and I can items to it but I just can't run
a search on it. Any ideas?

Command-line (zopectl debug?): you're anonymous
ZMI: you're authenticated

The catalog adds additional filters under the hood in order to filter
out content you are not allowed to see.

That could be the explanation - how can I authenticate myself in
zopectl debug?

from AccessControl.SecurityManagement import newSecurityManager
user = app.acl_users.getUser(user_name_or_id)
newSecurityManager(None, user.__of__(app.acl_users))

That does indeed solve the problem!

You can also call the 'unrestrictedSearchResults' method from trusted
code (e.g., the debugger): it bypasses those checks.

I should have guessed that there'd be a method like that! Still thanks
to Andreas I now know how to behave like a user in zopectl debug. I
think this is the first time I've come across restrictions in it.

You never called 'invokeFactory' in a debug session? ;-)

(due to the explicit security check in the process this
fails for anonymous)

Never mind,

No, don't use invokeFactory in any of our stuff. Thanks to Yuppie,
we've gone passed go and moved straight onto using createObject() - we
sort of opt-in to bits of the CMF when we understand them! ;-)
