Considering installation of Products we're in new territory anyway - they're not eggs, after all. I see in the result of ploneout that they get symlinked into the Products directory - will that work on Windows? <snip> * we can say something is a develop-Product. This means that you need a Product checkout that you refer to. This checkout is somehow linked so that Zope picks it up. (similar to the way develop-eggs has links to development packages). All entries in your bundle would be such a develop product.
'zope.conf' has a 'products' directive that you can use to point to other 'Products' directories other than the default in the INSTANCE_HOME. I believe you can add multiple 'products' directives to list multiple directories. Then you don't need to do any symlink or copying around.
Great idea! We should try this. Hanno? :) I guess we can disregard most of my 'Products as eggs' mail and simply allowing us to point to products directories in the Zope 2 instance recipe. I think a good pattern would be to simply have a 'Products' directory directly in the buildout directory. Regards, Martijn
