[Zope-dev] Adding properties in __init__

Hi, I have a product class that subclasses SimpleItem and PropertyManager. If I try and add a property in __init__ as so: self.manage_addProperty('AProperty','1\n2\n3','lines') I get the following wonderful error: Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: aq_base I'm guessing that this is because self isn't an acquisition wrapper in __init__ (even though SimpleItem is Acquisition.Implicit) but what am I supposed to do to add a property in __init__? cheers, Chris
