[Zope] ZClass base classes

Hi Nick

(please don't post HTML mail to the list).

I *think* the "Include standard Zope persistent object base classes"
check box gives your ZClass the "ZObject" interface which is similar to
the SimpleItem interface (see the Zope API docs in the help system - I
think it's under Help->Zope Help->API Documentation->ObjectManagerItem).

As far as inheritance order, the first base class you add to the ZClass
base class list will be ZObject if you use check the "standard base
classes" checkbox.  The next one will be the first base class you choose
(the topmost), the next one will be the one under that, etc.

I've looked all throught docs but I cant find anywhere an explanation of
what properties the ZClass base classes give you. Also which order to
inherit them, as the Developers Guide claims the order is important. Can
anyone please enlighten me?

Regards,
Nick.
