[Zope] ZCatalog and ExtFile

[Andrew Williams]

>From what I've read and understood, ZCatalog aware objects automatically 
update the catalog whenever they are added/deleted/changed.

However, ExtFile does not update ZCatalog whenever I add another ExtFile 
object to the ZODB.  I've checked the ExtFile code, and indeed, ExtFile 
inherits from Products.ZCatalog.CatalogAwareness, CatalogAware.

I continued to look at the ExtFile code, and discovered that ExtFile 
overides many of the methods in CatalogAware (manage_afterAdd, 
manage_beforeDelete, etc), but doesn't contain any of the code in the 
methods of CatalogAware.

I added the code from the CatalogAware methods, but my ZCatalog still does 
not update whenever an ExtFile object is added/deleted, etc.

Am I missing something here, or am I completely off base with my thinking?

Has anyone gotten the ExtFile product to be ZCatalog aware?

Thanks for any help,

Andrew Williams
