Defines resource type descriptors for all resources in the VFS.
Each file in the VFS must belong to an initialized resource type.
The available resource type are read during system startup ftom the configuration
file opencms-vfs.xml .
Certain resource types may require special handling for certain operations.
This is usually required for write operations, or other operations that
modify the VFS database.
Therefore, the
org.opencms.file.CmsObject defers handling of this
operations to implementations of this interface.
If you implement a new resource type, it's a good idea to extend the
abstract class
org.opencms.file.types.A_CmsResourceType .
Important: The
org.opencms.file.CmsObject passes the
org.opencms.db.CmsSecurityManager object to implementations of this class. |
