Re: [Zope] setting Zclass instance id based on properties

I would like to set the id of a Zclass instance based on some of the properties

I can not use the property variables in the add method since the properties have not yet been assigned a value

For instance let's say I have three properties: Section, Chapter and Page

How do I assign the id the value <dtml-var Section>-<dtml-var Chapter>-<dtml-var Page> when I create the zclass instance?

When you have created your ZClass, two constructors have been (usually) created: a form and its action. The action is a PythonScript in modern Zope versions -- quite easy to customize. When you have special needs you customize these two constructors... -- Dieter
