Hi Eric,
I am talking about filesystem/http.
HxFilesource loads httpfilesys and looks for content type
values from
the filesystem to find out the mime type. If these values
are not
present it goes and creates the file recognizer to know the
mime type.
While handling shoutcast links, httpfilesys is providing
content type
values. Hence there is no need to create the file recognizer
to know the
mime type. hence looking for the file extension is avoided.
My question is httpfilesys can provide content type values
to
Hxfilesource only after httpfilesys receives 200 OK
response. Http
response header has this value.
But this response comes to httpfilesys only after
hxfilesource finishes
with checking the content type values from httpfilesys.
Hence
hxfilesource doesn't know about the content type values at
the right
time. hxfilesource goes and creates the file recognizer to
know the mime
type which will look for the file extension.
I am not clear about how exactly are we taking care of url
which doesn't
have file extension.
Thanks
Praveen

Are you saying there is no Content-Type in the HTTP
response? Or that
the Content-Type is present, but it's still not recognizing
the mime
type?
Are you using the httplite file object (filesystem/httplite)
or the full
http file object (filesystem/http)?
