Re: [Zope-dev] ZCatalog with ZClass

Hello, everyone,

It seems that many of you have used ZCatalog pretty well.

My problem is that I'd like a ZClass (of a Product) to subclass CatalogAware, and implement all the index and search inside the Product. That means I don't want to do any DTML method stuff outside of the Product.

What you probably want is to create a repository that subclasses ZCatalog as is described in this HowTo: http://www.zope.org/Members/tseaver/inherit_ZCatalog And then add your CatalogAware ZClasses into it. Then you can set up your ZCatalog/ObjectManager with search methods. HTH, Michael Bernstein.
