[Zope-CMF] Re: How to count the number of replies?

[Ausum]

Thanks Tres.

This is the code I came up with, to count the number of replies from an
object, listed at a typical portal_catalog list:

<dtml-with getObject>
<dtml-if talkback>
  <dtml-let hasReplies="talkback.hasReplies( this() )">
    <dtml-if hasReplies>
      <dtml-var "talkback.replyCount( this() )">       
    </dtml-if>
  </dtml-let>
</dtml-if>
</dtml-with>

Put in a method it works fine, but I'm supposing that due it has to call
every found object in order to tell whether it has replies or not, it is
somehow costly. Shouldn't 'num_of_replies' be a catalogable object's
property, updated by the workflow? How do I perform this?

Thanks in advance,
