[opencms-dev] Module Export Points

[Raúl Lorenzo]

Hello Jonathan,

I got this by other way. I will explain to you.
I have a module, a put into resources folder all the icons per example.
I add and export point from /system/modules/mymodule/resources to 
resources/filetypes/system/modules/mymodule/resources/

and the in opencms-modules.xml <explorertype....> you write,
<explorertype ..... icon="system/modules/mymodule/resources/myicon.gif ... >

... signifies that is the same as you have.

icon= is a relative path to 
"http://your_opencms_server:your_port/opencms/resources/filetypes/" see 
below.

If you see the properties of the icon with right button mouse you will 
see an URL like 
"http://your_opencms_server:your_port/opencms/resources/filetypes/system/modules/mymodules/resources/myicon.gif"

This configuration lets you have separated your icons to the opencms 
resources in workplace. I didn´t get have stored this icon in other 
directory instead {Tomcat-Dir}/webapps/opencms/resources/filetypes/....
