As of now Jackrabbit doesn't support this. Are there any reason
besides 'it's
just not implemented' why this is currently not possible?
trivial changes are supported, i.e. adding non-mandatory properties for

should be fine. please take a look at the implementation of
NodeTypeRegistry.reregister()
and the javadoc of NodeTypeDefDiff.
Very nice! Didn't know that. How am I supposed to use the NodeTypeRegistry? I
could use Workspace.getNodeTypeManager() cast it to NodeTypeManagerImpl and call
getNodeTypeRegistry. But is there a better way to get the NodeTypeRegistry
without knowing about NodeTypeManagerImpl?
Thanks,
