[TYPO3-core] RFC #14711: Feature: Add XCLASS to class.t3lib_iconworks.php for developing alternative backend-skins

[Stephan N Kellermayr]

this is an SVN patch request.

type: feature

bugtracker references:
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=14711

branches:
trunk, current branch

problem:
at the moment there is no possibility to extend the class 
't3lib_iconworks', which is very bad for redesigning the backend, 
because you stuck on the implemented functions which handles the sprites 
and icons.

there are so many possibilities to handle those icons, and to stay 
flexible in visualization, there should also be the possibility to 
implement other ways of icon-handling or extend the functionallity of 
the current sprite-concept.

or is there a convincing reason why this class cannot be extended?


solution:
simple add the following patch and make this class extendable.
(patch attached: t3lib/class.t3lib_iconworks.php.0014711.diff)


notes:
none


best regards,
Stephan N Kellermayr
