[opencms-dev] Adding more resources sub-types

[Dylan Milks]

If I go to "Resource type management" on the admin side of OpenCMS, and add ".tiff" under "Image" - what corresponding action is taking place? Where is it storing those values (e.g.: Image has -> gif, jpeg, jpg, bmp, etc...)?

If I add a sub-type this way, I don't have to modify/create a new class. Can't I simulate this some way without having to write a new class?

- Dylan

you must also write special subclasses for your ResourceTypes. Then it
should work!
Hope this helps
