[TYPO3-mvc] Basket / session question

[Webmeck - TYPO3]

Hi Jan,

when you add an attribute to the product-class it wont be persisted 
automatically. You must not define it in the tca.

So I would:
add the isInBasket attribute to the product with getters/setters.

add a method to the basket markInBasketProducts($products), which 
iterates through the given products and sets the attribute.

This method I would call in the controller.
