Generally, the difference/battle between Python Product and ZClass is time. The cool thing about ZClass is that it "takes care of" all the security related junk that is to difficult and sensitive to write in a Python Product. However, if you have time and really want to pinpoint the details, python product is better. If Python products are faster, I don't know, but it likely is so. Another nice feature of Python Products is that you can change the baseclasses with time. In ZClasses you can't, so if you made an error in not selecting say "ZCatalogAware" on creation you'll have to rebuild the whole ZClass. 2600 DVD's isn't very much. I would go for a ZClass, unless you will want to compete against Amazon in a few months. peter
--- I like your advice to know when it's a good soluiton to use Zope to make an online shop wich sell dvd. I'll have 2600 differents dvd. I think, i'll use Zclasses for each DVD. Is it a good solution mainly for processing time when sorting DVD by actor or genre or ... ---
yep, seems like a good solution to me. one class and a catalog around it.
i *know* it's better to do it using python, but it's so much easier and faster to do it using zclasses (and for relatively small amounts of data (<5000) it doesn't really matter how many millisecs you trim off you code.
imho ;-)
