Ok I thought it would be something like that. I don't like it but I don't see another option. The meta_type information in types/foo.xml isn't strictly necessary, but it allows to see to which meta_type the XML file belongs and to check the meta_type before applying an XML file to an object. Yes I agree that it's good to have it in types/foo.xml for consistency and self-sufficiency.

Hi Florent! Florent Guillaume wrote: CMFCore.browser.typeinfo.FactoryTypeInformationAddView.getProfileInfos parses all the profiles types/*.xml files to check their meta_type. Why not check simply typesinfo.xml ? The CMF 1.5 version of typesinfo.xml doesn't contain the meta_type. My plan was to parse old profiles as well, at least in CMF 1.6. I'll fix the parsing of old types/*.xml files, it doesn't work right now. Besides that those add views are work in progress - I plan to add similar views for all tools. This will make changes in the shared code necessary. Also, why is the meta_type information duplicated in typesinfo.xml and types/foo.xml?

I also could imagine situations where we want to use those XML files outside a profile that contains a typesinfo.xml.
