Hi!
The setup handlers for adapter based import / export are just
boilerplate. I'd like to move the complete responsibility for setting up
tools to importToolset / exportToolset.
toolset.xml already contains all the necessary information if we use the
ID of the tool for computing the file names. catalog.xml would e.g.
become portal_catalog.xml.
GenericSetup would need some BBB code to handle CMF 1.5 profiles.
Old-style tool handlers can still have their own registry step.
This would make writing and maintaining tool handlers much simpler. On
the other hand we loose some flexibility:
- import/export of selected tools from a bigger profile: don't think we
really need that
- handling import dependencies: currently the 'workflow' step depends on
the 'typeinfo' step. AFAICS we can easily get rid of that dependency.
Nevertheless I think the refactoring would be an improvement and if
there are no objections I'll work on this change.
Cheers,
Yuppie
