Greetings.
I've created a package in Python with some basic classes. They work in the
ZMI, except for the fact that the ZMI paste and rename functionality fails
with the message "The object xxx does not support this operation."
I've dug into the source code for standard types ('OFS.Folder',
'OFS.SimpleItem', etc.) and discovered some tantalizing bits (such as
'manage_renameObject' in 'OFS.CopySupport'), but I can't figure out how to
put it together to make my classes renameable and pasteable. I'm rather
surprised that behavior doesn't come automatically when inheriting from the
standard base classes.
One of my folderish classes subclasses the following bases:
OFS.ObjectManager.ObjectManager
Products.ZCatalog.CatalogPathAwareness.CatalogAware
OFS.PropertyManager.PropertyManager
OFS.SimpleItem.SimpleItem
Am I not inheriting from the proper set of base classes? Is there an easier
way? According to the ZDG (2.4 edition, vs. my Zope 2.7),
OFS.SimpleItem.Item (subclassed by OFS.SimpleItem.SimpleItem) is supposed to
provide cut-and-paste functionality. So, how might I be breaking it?
Bewildered,
..Ian
