---------------------------------------
Summary: Clarify Resource#getResourceSuperType
Key: SLING-2740
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-2740
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: API
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
Fix For: API 2.3.2
The javadoc of Resource#getResourceSuperType currently says:
"Returns the super type of the type of the resource or <code>null</code> if the
{@link #getResourceType()} has no supertype."
however all implementations and the usage of this method are different from
this: this method returns only the resource super type if it knows this type by
itself, e.g. for a JCR resource if it has a super type property. Otherwise it
returns null.
So basically this method can be used by a resource to overwrite or force a
resource type hierarchy
