[TYPO3-dev] Sensible usage of hook tslib_content_getDataHook or not?

[Francois Suter]

Hi,

I've thought about that, but it's no good in my case because my data 
structure is a multi-dimensional array (I should have mentioned that, 
sorry) and register:xxx can only access a 1-dimension array.

case 'register':
	$retVal = $GLOBALS['TSFE']->register[$key];
	break;

which is why I thought about adding a new key and handling it with the 
hook, but it doesn't seem efficient to have that hook called every time 
the data property of a stdWrap is used. Or is that a wrong impression?

Cheers
