    Changed paths:
       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/ZODB/serialize.py

    For instances of persistent classes, save a class-module/clas-name
    tuple if the class has a non-empty module string.

    Changed paths:
       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py

    Changed sub-transaction abort code to not invalidate created objects.
    There's really no point, because created objects will be unreachable
    after invalidating old objects.  Also, if a created object is
    non-ghostifiable, it will try to load it's state again, and then
    either it would fail or it would load non-committed state.

       A /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/ZODB/tests/testpersistentclass.py

    Added ZClass-independent test of (and possible base class for)
    persistent-class support machinery.

    Changed paths:
       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/transaction/_manager.py

    Added missing arguments to commit and abort.

    Changed paths:
       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/transaction/__init__.py

    Changed to use methods of a threaded manager directly, rather than
    through wrapper functions.

    r29773 | jim | 2005-04-01 06:24:25 -0500 (Fri, 01 Apr 2005) | 3 lines
    Changed paths:
       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/transaction/_manager.py

    Added commit and abort methods to transaction managers.
    This makes direcr use of managers simpler.

    Changed paths:
       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/transaction/_transaction.py

    Changed an XXX comment to an ordinary comment, explaining the relevent
    issue.

    r29099 | jim | 2005-02-10 07:41:58 -0500 (Thu, 10 Feb 2005) | 3 lines
    Changed paths:
       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py

    Changed some XXX comments to ordinary comments explaining the relevent
    issues.

    r29071 | jim | 2005-02-07 07:36:05 -0500 (Mon, 07 Feb 2005) | 3 lines
    Changed paths:
       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/transaction/_transaction.py

    Added a sanity check to avoid registration of objects without a
    manager. (Perhaps this should be an assert.)

       M /Zope/branches/jim-fix-zclasses/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py

    Changed the strategy for handling invalidation of classes.
    No-longer use setklassstate.  Instead, just call _p_invalidate, as
    with any other object.  This changes didn't break any tests, so I
    assume that this was untested. :(

    Changed the strategy for invalidating objects.  Non-ghostifiable
    objects will load their state when they are invalidated.  We have to
    worry about other invalidations that come in while this is happening.
    See the comment in _flush_invalidations.

    We need to force all invalidations to take this into account, by going
    through _flush_invalidations.  I haven't done this yet, but I have
    left some XXX comments in places where it needs to be done to remind
    myself that this needs to be done.

    with any other object.  This changes didn't break any tests, so I

    Change invalidation to not swallow errors. (Swallowing errors here was a
    travesty!)
