[TYPO3-dev] TCA-Handling

Hi list,

i've a maybe dumb question: I'm writing an extension in that i want to 
register own field types for a record dynamically. On these types depend 
two flex fields in the TCA of this table (If they are needed or not and 
from where the DS comes).

Actually i call a static function from an own class that looks up for an 
array in the extconf, adds the types to the TCA and decides which 
elements the TCA-type-showitem has to contain. Works fine so long

Because i want to release the extension for others, i of course care a 
bit for it's integrity: Is this way of adding types to the TCA ok - or 
are there reasons to avoid a function call in tca.php? Is the 
ext_localconf always loaded before the TCA?

Thank you a lot,
Christian
