I am try create a new Module. I define in the first class some columns(type=char) in these are some field names and I want to display these enteries as fields in another class.

But I don't really understand some parts of the following function.

def fields_view_get(self, cr, uid, view_id=None, view_type='form', context=None, toolbar=False,submenu=False):
    result = super(categories, self).fields_view_get(cr, uid, view_id, view_type, context, toolbar,submenu)

What does the next line do? Can I specify here the classes from where the function will read the fields?

school_obj = self.pool.get('sim.categories')
result['arch']
return result

How can I tell the function to get the fields from a specific class and how can I display the result in a form for debugging and testing?

Can you give me a Module name in which a dynamic field view was already realized? I think in post_return from v6 is something that I want. Is this code compatible to v7 or give it a better solution?

You can not display the fields of one class in the view of another class unless and untill you have made inheritance.

So please check you make inheritance of categories (Parent class) if yes then you can directly use XML record to add new fields on the views.

Thank you for the reply. I want to create fields dynamic based on entries in the DB. Can you give me an example how I display a result(return) of an function anyway in a form. Maybe in a text field?

I use the print function to display the result of this function in console. But the result was empty. Can this function build fields out of DB entries in a specific column?
