[TYPO3-templavoila] Datastructures in external Files

[Jan Bednarik]

Hi,

> Not possible to include external XML. This has been asked many times.

however, the source codes look like they could handle it. Look at this 
piece of code:

$srcPointer = $row['tx_templavoila_ds'];
		if (t3lib_div::testInt($srcPointer))	{	// If integer, then its a 
record we will look up:
			$DSrec = 
$GLOBALS['TSFE']->sys_page->checkRecord('tx_templavoila_datastructure', 
$srcPointer);
			$DS = t3lib_div::xml2array($DSrec['dataprot']);
		} else {	// Otherwise expect it to be a file:
			$file = t3lib_div::getFileAbsFileName($srcPointer);
			if ($file && @is_file($file))	{
				$DS = t3lib_div::xml2array(t3lib_div::getUrl($file));
			}
		}

the problem is, that TCA defines it as database-relation (select). So if 
you'd make an extension that would change the field into "file" type, it 
may just work.

Just guessing ;)
