That does not look like a great option. DIH looks like an overkill for this usecase.
You can write a simple UpdateHandler to do that . All that you need to do is to extent ContentStreamHandlerBase and register it as an UpdateHandler On Sat, Jan 24, 2009 at 12:34 PM, Shalin Shekhar Mangar <shalinman...@gmail.com> wrote: > There's another option.
