| IFileTypeDefinition Interface |
Represents the functionality of a file type definition as a read-only
object, which can be used to instantiate the file type support components.
The file type definition includes all information on the support
for a specific file type.
The file type definition uses a IFileTypeComponentBuilder to retrieve the
relevant information from persistent storage, e.g. file type definition
XML files or database tables.
