[Product-Developers] Re: Python-created content has no title. Permissions?

[Johannes Schwenk]

Replying to myself.

I found out, that after calling

typestool.constructContent(type_name="MyType",
     container=v,
     id=vid,
     title=subj)

I have to do

v[vid].setTitle(subj)
v[vid].reindexObject()

if I want the newly created object to be found and the Title to be
displayed correctly!

That is strange, because if I create a simple Folder via
constructContent, these additional steps are not necessary. Has someone
a clue what could be missing in my product?

Thanks,
Johannes
