[Zope-CMF] constructContent ?

[Florent Guillaume]

constructContent is a method internal to the portal types objects
themselves. Aren't you rather looking for invokeFactory, which is a
method of the folder ?

	container.invokeFactory('News Item', id)
	newitem = container[id]
	newitem.editMetadata(...)
