You confuse "attribute access syntax" and "subscription syntax".
At some places, Zope tries to hide such confusion but not everywhere :-)

Attribute access:
	  "object.attribute" (static form)
  or
	  "getattr(object,attribute_name_expression [, default])" (computed form)

Subscription:

	  object[key_expression]

Consequence: you use

    getattr(context.manage_addProduct['myProduct'], 'someClass').createInObjectManager(....)
