Description Martin Krauskopf 2007-10-10 18:19:05 UTC 
1) Tools -> Options -> Advanced Options -> IDE Configuration -> System -> Object Types -> Source files for RHTML, Ruby
2) Add e.g. _c_ extension there.
3) New File -> Other -> Emtpy file
4) Create new hello.c

NPE is thrown and the same whenever you touch the ahoj.c's node.

This is a duplicate of 116563.

Basically "extending mime-types" is what you want, but that's now that IDE Configuration > System > Object Types does.
See 116563 for details.

To solve this we need to make the RubyMimeResolver configurable - or for 6.0 perhaps it would be better to write a
separate module: configure-mimetypes. This would register a mime resolver class that has a set of known extensions and
maps them to known mimetypes - and would offer an options panel to customize the extensions and mimetypes. 

There is nothing Ruby specific about this and should be a core service of the IDE...
