6.4.2.5. ContentFactoryMetadata deprecation

Up one level
CMF deprecated this call a while back, and Plone 3.0 is the first version that ships without this. Here's how to update your product to use the new syntax.

Typical error message: 

  Error Type: exceptions.ImportError
  Error Value: cannot import name ContentFactoryMetadata

What causes this? Somewhere in your code, you have something like: 

  from Products.CMFCore.TypesTool import ContentFactoryMetadata

Update this to: 

  from Products.CMFCore.TypesTool import FactoryTypeInformation

instead, and you should be good to go. This change should work all the way back to Plone 2.1.

For a live example, see DataGridField changeset 7901.
