[Zope] Zclass and manage_clone (a bit long)

14 Apr 2000

      hi all

i followed the example of cloning apps to make a product in ZCMG.  i can
successfully do it.

however, when i tried doing the same inside of a ZClass, i can't clone

the builder dtml-method is the same.

<dtml-call "manage_clone(Disc,REQUEST['myid'],REQUEST)">

disc is a folder containing other objects (dtml method, dtml document, zsql
method)

the 'tree 'view:
control_panel/
	products/
		myproduct
			myZClass
			class constructor
				Disc(folder)
				builder

here's the error and traceback
The object Disc does not support this operation 
Traceback (innermost last):

another side note,
it seems that the distribution tab does not wok.  i followed the example in
ZCMG, and exported a product.  but when i uncompress the product.tar.gz into
zope, i dont see the product even after restart.

also tried exporting the product into zexp, but i cant import.  got error
Error Type: TypeError
                             Error Value: ('len() of unsized object', , None)

traceback

thanks in advance.
