Hi ZPatterns- and CMF-Fans,
after long thoughts i tried to combine the best of CMF and ZPatterns and the result is
astonishingly simple ..
I made all modifications in CMFCore and had to touch only 3 files on a few (5 or so)
places.
1. i subclassed PortalFolder directly from CustomizerFolder instead of OFS.Folder
2. i needed to modify skins_tool to coop with some ZPatterns magic
3. i subclassed PortalContent directly from DataSkin
it worked :))
now one can use the CMF as is, except the freedom of storage and the usefullnes of
Skinscript for certain Dataskins.
Is anyone interested in this patch ??
Does anyone see some major incompatiblities between ZPatterns and CMF .. I haven't compared
all attributes and methods of both .. so if anyone knows both and sees a potential problem ..
please give me a note ..
I'm not shure however, what format this should be distributed .. for unix a CMF-ZPatterns-Patch
would probably be best .. other plattforms do not have this .. any comments ??
thanks for your audience
