# This patch file was generated by NetBeans IDE
# This patch can be applied using context Tools: Apply Diff Patch action on respective folder.
# It uses platform neutral UTF-8 encoding.
#
#         This patch gives resource types the option of including a
#         "get_icon.php" script inside their resource type module folder which
#         can dynamically determine the correct icon type to be used (i.e.
#         instead of using the "icon.gif" in the folder).  For example, in the
#         case of a "repository" resource, the returned resource will likely
#         not be adequately described by a single icon (in once case a ppt file
#         could be returned, in another a jpeg and so on).
#
# Above lines and this line are ignored by the patching process.
