questions related to table products_description

[ada_v]

Hi,

I need to do something and i'm not so sure how to do this:
  - in my application I need to add some extra fields to the table products_description (products_type, products_autor, ...)
  - I was thinking to add this some extra fields to table products_description, but I don't know how to do this
  - I added the columns but now my problem is that I need to acces this columns as same as I get prod.getDescription() from class ProductIf

How can I do this? Can anyone help me?
How can I use the fields Custom1-5? Where and how can I set them?

Thank a lot,
Ada

I'm not certain I understand your question...

For adding information to your product objects the easiest way is by using the custom fields.

You set these by populating them and using the APIs to create/update the product.

Check the javadoc for the Admin APIs.

To be more explicit:

- I'm working at the translation of an online shob based on OsCommerce to Konakart
- because I was running that script to make the translation, to my table of products_description has apeared some extra fields (for example product_autor)
- i don.t know how to use it, how to acces in the client to print this extra fields
