[TYPO3-mvc] Configure addRecordTypeConstraint?

[Henjo Hoeksma]

Hi Georg,

for my own extension I tried out something funny to load a different model
when using another extension + a setting in the cofiguration of the news
extension: I load the configuration array and based on that decided which
model to actually use.

In my Domain/Model/Item.php is set the following code:

// get extension configuration
$confArr =
unserialize($GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXT']['extConf']['hhnews']);


if ($confArr['useYoutube']) {
require_once ('ItemWithYoutube.php');
} else {
require_once ('ItemNormal.php');
}

Other than it feels dirty I have found no drawback in using it so far.

On the other hand you could create one model and make the distinction of
what the TCA Form is showing based on your forms type setting. But I think
that's what you had at first?

Kind regards,

Henjo

Problems are small because we learned how to deal with them.
