             Summary: ResourceResolver.isResourceType leads to endless loop when resourceSuperType hierarchy is cyclic
                 Key: SLING-5207
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5207
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ResourceResolver
    Affects Versions: Resource Resolver 1.2.4
            Reporter: Stefan Seifert
             Fix For: Resource Resolver 1.2.8


although illegal it is technically possible to create two resources which superResourceType hierarchy creates cycles pointing to each other directly or indirectly.

with the current implementation of ResourceResolver.isResourceType this leads to an endless loop. the implementation should detect such and error and throw an exception.
