[opencms-dev] How to determine if a CmsResource is a sibling?

[Thomas Kiesl]

Hi Carl,

thanks for your answer.

We built an eCommerce Shop with OpenCMS, the Products are represented  
in structured content files. Every night we have to update some  
products by a cronjob. Because on product has many siblings I want to  
update them only one time.

Cheers Tom
