Limitations in how many fields a content class can have?

(RC1)

Are there known limitations regarding how many fields a class (in my case a content class) can have? I'm in "Class edit" btw.

I have a class with 21 fields, and when I tried to add field nr. 19 (hitting the New after selecting the required fieldtype) it came out with no "Type". I ignored it, filled in the info and submitted (by adding once again a new field).

It croaked, gave errors on all fields, but the new field with the correct type, and the "errorous" field - also this with correct type, where there.

Filled in info for the new field, submitted by adding a new one, everything correct still, filled in the info for the last field (nr. 21 btw.) and chose to store.

It worked.

Did I experience a bug or a limitation or what...?

I have seen the same error manifest itself like described above earlier (alson on RC1), but I do not recall if it happened on field nr. 19 then.

I had the same problem!
But I think you explain it better than me!

I added a screenshot but I think it didn't work.

There is no limitation of number of attributes by design, the limitations are made by database, apache, php or the browser.
Creating a class with 100 attributes should be no problem.

However I believe the problem was in the template engine and some PHP references, this problem is fixed for the RC2 release.

I just tested a new class with 42 attributes (all datatypes twice) and it worked perfectly, even creating an object with it.
