Tim,
"and the error that i'm getting is
how should i set description var. ?"
this leds you up the garden path. I verified your declaration of
::im::product which is not supposed to work anyway, leaving aside
creating and persisting instances thereof. Find a working examples
below:
namespace eval ::im {
::xo::db::CrClass create ::im::Product \
-superclass ::xo::db::CrItem \
-id_column product_id \
-table_name im_products \
-pretty_name "Im Product" \
-slots {
::xo::db::CrAttribute create company_id \
-datatype integer \
-pretty_name "Company ID" \
-pretty_plural "Company IDs"
::xo::db::CrAttribute create price \
-pretty_name "Product Price" \
-pretty_plural "Product Prices"
::xo::db::CrAttribute create delivery_time \
-datatype date \
-pretty_name "Product Delivery Time" \
-pretty_plural "Product Delivery Times"
}
}
::im::Product create product \
-name "New product test name" \
-title "New product test title" \
-description "New product test description" \
-price 11 \
-delivery_time "2004-10-19 10:23:54+02"
::product save_new
What are/ were the most burning issues:
1. Slot declaration in product->init(): init is performed on an
instance, i.e. an object of class ::im::product, while slots() is
class-object-specific, i.e. it can only be applied to ::im::product
directly (technically speaking, it is a per-instance method provided
by ::xotcl::Class which is inherited by ::xo::db::CrClass)
2. you got many typos in there: pretty_namne -> pretty_name,
CtAttribute -> CrAttribute
3. finally, if you want something to be a timestamp + time zone, then
you need to provide it: ::product delivery_time "2004-10-19
10:23:54+02"
