Description Milos Kleint 2002-03-08 13:46:40 UTC 
as far as I could figure (by asking yarda ;) there's no way how to register my
look for all dataobject for a given filesystem type. 

example:
For vcs we want to provide the current versioning explorer functionality within
the standard Explorer, by providing a versioning look that will display the
existing revisions tree for the file..
Thus we need a look for all different dataobject types that is bound to
dataobjects from our filesystems only.

Moving Looks issues to dev 4.0
Comment 2 Jaroslav Tulach 2002-07-25 18:30:27 UTC 
Should be possible. Register a "delegator look" for
org.openide.filesystems.FileObject that will extract the class of the
FileObject's filesystem and delegate for example to:

Looks/FileObject/org/openide/filesystems/LocalFileSystem
Looks/FileObject/org/openide/filesystems/AbstractFileSystem
Looks/FileObject/org/openide/filesystems/FileSystem

sequence, the represented object will still be FileObject, but the
dispatch will be done using the FileSystem type.
