Hi Florent!

In the Properties tab of CMFSetup, you can choose an active site
configuration, among the snapshots and the registered profiles.
This sets the current context_id for the tool, and loads the import
steps, export steps and toolset for that configuration.
When you switch to a new base configuration, the import/export steps
are loaded on top of the current ones without purging. So for instance
if you:
- select CMFDefault Site. The import steps now comprise 8 steps.
- select CMFCalendar. The import steps now have an additional "Various
Calendar Settings" step.
- select CMFDefault Site again (or a third-party base (non-extension)
profile). The Calendar step is retained.
Is this intended ? If yes, why ? My reasoning would be that when you
import a base profile, you want just that, not what was previously there.
I'll fix that if we agree it's a bug.
Well. This is still a mess. Loading import/export steps from the profile
did make more sense before I added extension profile support. Now I
would prefer to register *all* handlers on Zope startup.
The handlers are supposed to do nothing if there are no related
XML-files in the selected profile. But this rule doesn't work with the
provisional handlers in CMFDefault and CMFCalendar because they don't
depend on an XML-file.
The problem with the fix you proposed is that we currently need a
complete set of import/export handlers for snapshots/exports. Switching
back to the base profile would reset all handlers and make snapshots
incomplete.
Cheers,
Yuppie
