The only thing I can find in the docs about PropertyManager and where it is supported is this somewhat unhelpful sentence. "Certain Zope objects support the ability to maintain a set of arbitrary properties." What are those objects? Where is this documented? How would anyone find this out without asking this list? I can't find anyplace that the Zope docs define which interfaces are supported by which objects, but it's a big ocean out there so maybe I missed a key island.

You might want to install DocFinderEverywhere <http://www.zope.org/Members/shh/DocFinderEverywhere> and simply "ask" Zope objects for their capabilities and documentation. HTH, Stefan --On Dienstag, 16. Juli 2002 09:35 -0700 Dan Shafer <pydan@danshafer.com> wrote:

What are those objects? All, which derive from "OFS.PropertyManager".
Where is this documented? When you see a "Properties" tab in the ZMI, the object is probably a PropertyManager.
Isn't this enough documentation? The object says directly: look, I have properties! Why a thick documentation for such obvious features?
How would anyone find this out without asking this list? I can't find anyplace that the Zope docs define which interfaces are supported by which objects, but it's a big ocean out there so maybe I missed a key island. It's not yet optimal. With Zope3, it will become much better.
