Cereal Factory

   This product contains a relatively simple TypesTool add-in based on
   FactoryTypeInformation, called SerialFactoryTypeInformation.  The
   Serial Factory generates serial numbers for ids per container,
   useful for content objects such as Tasks and Issues.

Cereal Factory CHANGES

  1.1.0,  15 nov 2001

    o Significant vamping and revamping to allow the tracking of
      the high-serial number to be on the target containers themselves

    o Allowing the serial factory to attempt to resume the
      sequence, even if the tracking information for a particular
      container has been lost.

    o Addresses a bug in the CMF where the workflow system gets
      called with notifyCreate() before the content object has
      its portal type set, potentially sending the notifyCreate
      to the wrong workflow.  The serial factory type information
      calls into the workflow tool again *after* the portal type
      has been set so that the object gets associated with the
      right workflow and runs through the right notifyCreated()
      process.
