[Typo3-dev] Building flexform DS for TCEFORM

[Robert Böttner]

Hi all,

I´m currently extending tt_products.

The goal is to achieve configurable sets of product attributes. Single 
attributes (title, unit, format ...) can be defined in a regular 
database table.
 From this records the BE user collects the necessary attributes in a 
set. This set is stored as XML for generating the BE form inside the 
tt_products record.

So far everything is working fine with predefined T3DataStructures 
manually stored to the product record. BE forms render and data is 
stored properly.

Where I´m stuck now is setting up the generation of the flexform data 
structure in a BE module. I´m studying the TemplaVoila EXT to get behind 
the logic for creating the XML structure.

Maybe someone could give me another hint in the right direction.

Sorry for cross-posting, the tt-products list is not too frequented yet.
