Its really not that different. I'd suggest looking at the source of in lib/python/OFS/Folder.py. You basically have to make your class inherit from ObjectManager and a bunch of other classes (eg. SimpleItem.Item and FindSupport and webdav classes, if you need it), or you can inherit from OFS.Folder directly (if youre as lazy as I am:)). You then have to tell Zope to include a "folderish" manage tab. You can quite conveniently reuse the one provided by ObjectManager, with:
manage_options=( (ObjectManager.ObjectManager.manage_options[0],) + ... # other mgt. tabs
That should be about it. I can send you a commented skeleton folderish Product if its any use to you, just contact me off-list.
cheers, peter.

Hello,
I've just studied the "Python Product Development Tutorial" (http://www.zope.org/Members/hathawsh/PythonProductTutorial). This shows how to develop a Python-based product with a non-folderish object. I've managed to develop mij own non-folderish object this way.
Now I'd like to learn how to develop a folderish object (again, Python-based). Can someone please provide some guidance? Is there a how-to/tutorial for folderish products as well? Or is it not that different?
A practical question about folderish objects: Should it inherit from Folder or ObjectManager directly? Should it still inherit from OFS.SimpleItem.(Simple)Item?
TIA, René Pijlman
