[ZODB-Dev] ZODB and new style classes?

[Magnus Lycka]

I've realized that it would be good for me to sub class
string....

What version of ZODB do I need to do that? I'm using
StandaloneZODB 1.0 today, but I got the impression that
this version doesn't handle Python 2.2 new style classes.
(TypeError: metatype conflict among bases)

Is whatever-version-I-need stable, and will there be any
problems in using my current file storage database files
with that version?

I just tried something like:

class MyClass(str, Persistence.Persistent):
     blah blah blah

That way I planned to get a persistent string that I can
attach more attributes to. I have a lot of code assuming
this object is a string (plenty of 'if object in "asdfgh"'
etc) but now I suddenly need to have colours etc as well. :-(
