The patch to implement: Validate properties specified for sorting and grouping in index views. Original patch from martin.v.loewis via: https://hg.python.org/tracker/roundup/rev/439bd3060df2 Applied by John Rouillard with some modification to properly identify if the bad property is a sort or grouping property. Tests added. has an issue with the current code base. Apparently sometime it can be entered without self.classname being defined. As a result the property lookup fails. So guard it by checking for self.classname in a couple of spots and if self.classname is not set just append the property and let the target action sort it out.

def eml_to_mht(db, cl, nodeid, newvalues):
    '''This auditor fires whenever a new file entity is created.

    If the file is of type message/rfc822, we tack onthe extension .eml.

    The reason for this is that Microsoft Internet Explorer will not open
    things with a .eml attachment, as they deem it 'unsafe'. Worse yet,
    they'll just give you an incomprehensible error message. For more 
    information, please see:

    Their suggested work around is (excerpt):

     WORKAROUND

     To work around this behavior, rename the .EML file that the URL
     links to so that it has a .MHT file name extension, and then update
     the URL to reflect the change to the file name. To do this:

     1. In Windows Explorer, locate and then select the .EML file that
        the URL links.
     2. Right-click the .EML file, and then click Rename.
     3. Change the file name so that the .EML file uses a .MHT file name
        extension, and then press ENTER.
     4. Updated the URL that links to the file to reflect the new file
        name extension.

    So... we do that. :)'''
