From what I've read and understood, ZCatalog aware objects automatically update the catalog whenever they are added/deleted/changed.

However, ExtFile does not update ZCatalog whenever I add another ExtFile object to the ZODB. I've checked the ExtFile code, and indeed, ExtFile inherits from Products.ZCatalog.CatalogAwareness, CatalogAware. I continued to look at the ExtFile code, and discovered that ExtFile overides many of the methods in CatalogAware (manage_afterAdd, manage_beforeDelete, etc), but doesn't contain any of the code in the methods of CatalogAware. I added the code from the CatalogAware methods, but my ZCatalog still does not update whenever an ExtFile object is added/deleted, etc. Am I missing something here, or am I completely off base with my thinking? Has anyone gotten the ExtFile product to be ZCatalog aware?
