OK, it seems nice. We also have a a heavy dependency to ZCatalogs, CatalogAwareness and Automatic Cataloging. How do I use the "mxm Easy product" in order to accomplish Automatic Cataloging for the _properties in my mxmItem class. Is a specialisation of mxmSimpleItem necessary? /Per -----Original Message----- From: Max M [mailto:maxm@mxm.dk] Sent: 25 January, 2002 11:02 To: Per Hörnfeldt Cc: 'zope@zope.org' Subject: Re: [Zope] Transfer of ZClass based product to source code Per Hörnfeldt wrote:

Hi, we have built a product that relies heavily on ZClasses. Now we want to base our product on source code, in order to adapt to our CM-routines and to reduce the risks in having the code in the database. We want to change the implementation as little as possible. Does anyone have a proposal for a strategy for the transition?

There is no absolutely easy way to do it. Other than to write a product from scratch. If you have not tried that before, it can be simplified a lot by using: http://www.zope.org/Members/maxm/HowTo/easyProduct As this is devloped to work a lot like a zClass. Just in a product. regards Max M
