I created a ZClass [from the web-interface] in a product with a certain dtml method, then inherited another ZClass from it. after attempting to re-distribute the product to move it to another machine, I noticed that the product was no-longer redistributable, and therefore I could not edit any of the classes within it.
What I decided to do was import/export all of the ZObjects in the product manually and import them into a new product on a different machine (which I'll have to do when I move it again to my production machine). Everything seems to have worked fine except that the second ZClass' methods that should have been inherited from the first ZClass seem to have been permenantly cached and frozen in that class in their forms from the moment the first ZClass was exported and re-imported.
I can't modify the stale methods because they were inherited, and therefore have to management interface in the subclass. Is there a way to resolve this? Also, the re-distribution problem is fairly severe unless everyone develops on production servers... I have read in the mailing list archives about problems with ZClass inheritance when the inherited class lives in a different product.
If both classes are in the same product, I think, I was able to successfully export and reimport the complete product. Dieter
