Hey
I'm working on an extension that's filtering out files/dirs starting
with "." from different views - in order to hide .svn dirs.
While this works for several other typo3 and t3lib classes, I'm
having a hard time extending class.t3lib_foldertree.php. The XCLASS
file class.ux_t3lib_foldertree.php is declared correctly and IS
included by the original class file. The class name
(t3lib_folderTree) and method name (getFolderTree) are okay as well.
Still, the original method is used nevertheless.
Here's how I've tried: I've created a page containing an images
content element. The filebrowser to choose an image from fileadmin is
rendered by the getFolderTree method in the t3lib_folderTree class.
If I alter it to ignore files starting with ".", the .svn directories
are no longer listed. Then I've put the altered function into
class.ux_t3lib_foldertree.php in my extension and linked it in via
XCLASS. The ux file is included (tested with die), but the
overwriting getFoldTree method is not used, rather the original one -
so the .svn directories pop up again.
I'm very greatful for anyone with more core knowledge than me looking
at it and giving me a hint why this fails. My extension can be found
here:
http://www.bitcetera.com/download/
T3X_isunic_dotfiles-0_1_0.t3x.gz (gzipped!)
By the way, I've submitted a bug http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?
id=5779 in order to allow the hiding of dotfiles globally. I'm
confident, I can get my employer to sponsor this bug with some cash,
I'll get an answer very soon.
Thanks very much for your help!! -sven
