Registers the java class to be instantiated when retrieving custom content objects of a given subtype. The class should extend CustomContent.

Parameters:

subtype_ - The subtype of the custom content.

customClass_ - The class to use for custom content of this subtype.

setApplicationContentSubtypeClass

public static void setApplicationContentSubtypeClass(int subtype_,
                                                     java.lang.Class customClass_)
