[opencms-dev] Getting a CmsResource by means of the resource id

[M Butcher]

Claus,

I think your best bet would be to use CmsObject.readFileHeader() to 
determine whether its a file or a folder, and then use the 
CmsObject.readFile() or readFolder() methods.


CmsResource res = cmso.readFileHeader( resourceName );
if( res.isFolder() ) {
    CmsFolder folder = cmso.readFolder(res);
    ...
} else if( res.isFile() ) {
    CmsFile file = cmso.readFile(res)
    ...
}

And since both CmsFile and CmsFolder are subclasses of CmsResource, you 
can cast them back to CmsResources if you need.
