[Pydev-code] Zope instances with multiple products directiories

[Fabio C. <in...@co...>]

As you probably know, Zope 2 can have multiple directories containing  
product modules, which are put inside the Products. namespace at  
runtime.

A way to make autocompletion work inside Zope 2 products is to put an  
__init__.py file inside the instance Products directory; however,  
this approach doesn't work in instances with multiple products  
directories defined in zope.conf.

I gave a quick look at Pydev source code and found the  
getModulesFoundStructure method, then I arbitrarily changed each top  
module name by prefixing the string "Products." to it; now for every  
top module in my test project, I get autocompletion working as I'd like.

Is there any evident side effect which could be caused by this kind  
of module name mangling?

If not, I would like to implement a new list of source folders in the  
project properties called "Zope2 products source folders" which  
always get "Products." appended by the ModuleManager, in order to  
ease developing on instances with multiple products directories.

Best,
