I'm starting work on my first ZClasses. I have news story code that I am using at http://www.byproducts.com. I am changing it from a system using DTML Methods in various Folders, TinyTables and such into something that is designed with ZClasses and ZCatalog. I want to make sure I understand this correctly: - I am creating an ArticleStorage Product & ZClass that is designed to contain and manage Article(s) (another ZClass) - If I were to put a ZCatalog inside the ArticleStorage ZClass, that catalog would contain the information from *all* ArticleStorage instances - Or, if I have the add method of ArticleStorage create the ZCatalog, then the catalog would index only that given instance's Articles. Is that correct?
From a design standpoint, does it make more sense to have the catalog acquired from somewhere outside the ArticleStorage? That way, if there is information in the ArticleStorage and information in other places, they can all be conveniently searched via one catalog.
The reason I was thinking of putting the catalog inside of the ArticleStorage is because there are specific things that need to be indexed within the articles for this to work (eg "Category") Opinions? Thanks, Kevin
