I have build a external product with its own classes for storing information. How can I get Zcatalog to index the data within these classes and how do I get Zcatalog to index certain parts of these classes (certain dictionaries).
Please read the "ZCatalog" section in the Zope Book (2.6 edition, online on Zope.org).
It explains how indexes and metadata fields of the catalog correspond with attributes and methods (maybe acquired) of indexed objects.
Thanks, but I'm aware of the Zcatalog section in the Zope book. I got the ZCatalog perfectly working with my ZClasses. However I'm building the next generation of our Zope based cms entirely with external products, leaving ZClasses behind. Documention including the developpers guide isn't any helpfull regarding the Zcatalog in this respect. I have a product wich has a dictionary of dictionaries (items) for storing data, including text data. One of the items fields is tekst (text). Of course I can instruct the Zcatalog to catalog this product. But it won't find the 'tekst' object (or any other) in the object in while creating indexes. I'm clearly missing something here. Henny
