Hi Stefan,

what would be the advantage of meta data saved as Mixin over just a node. Can I search Mixings thourh XPath?

Thanks,
Nikolay

Hello,

I would like to implement 2 things and maybe you can give me some
advice how to do it:

1) I want to add Metadata to every node.
Possible solution: add a node called metaData and and the metaData as
properties belonging to this node. What do you think? Or are there
better ways?
you could e.g. define  a custom mixin node type and assign it to specific nodes
by calling Node.addMixin().

2) Some specific nodes should inherit other nodes, in a way that the
metaData in the super node is also metaData in the subnode. How can I
implement this?
if the 'super node' is always a parent of the 'derived' node you could
write some custom code which does traverse the parent hierarchy until it
finds the 'meta data'.

cheers

Thank you,

Nikolay
