I need to have a multilingual, multi value list of properties for this type, lets call them targetAudience. These properties should be ideally dynamically modifiable and it should be easy to search for the "associated" sc<img id="smileyvery-happy" class="emoticon emoticon-smileyvery-happy" src="https://connect.hyland.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-very-happy.png" alt="Smiley Very Happy" title="Smiley Very Happy" />ocs by these properties. I will use Alfresco remotely as a repository (most likely using REST), so web client configuration is not a problem. However it would be nice if at least prototyping could be done with the web client.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have some ideas how to implement this, but I am not sure which is the right way to proceed:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>1. Implement as a list constraint:</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>This is easy and I can get the multilingual part done in my own application layer. However this is not dynamic.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>2. Implement as a custom list constraint (loading the constraint list from DB or file):</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>This would be dynamic but I am afraid of the complexity of implementing something like this. In addition, I would still need to do the multilingual part in my&nbsp; application. Doing this dynamically and with the possibility that the application will be ran on different servers makes this non-optimal.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>3. Implement this as association. </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>This is, every new targetAudience would be of type sc:targetAudience. sc:TargetAudience could have multilingual properties. I am afraid this would make searching using Lucene much harder. Maybe I could get all the sc:targetAudience nodeRefs (or whatever I need to search directly) into my application and search by these?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>4. Implement as child association.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>This could be done by having the association with &lt;source&gt;&lt;multiple&gt;True&lt;/multiple&gt;&lt;/source&gt; and &lt;target&gt;&lt;multiple&gt;True&lt;/multiple&gt;&lt;/target&gt;. Only problem with this is that I don't know what happens if I delete a document? Will all my sc:targetAudiences associated to that document get deleted also? Could I make a special node to contain all the primary references, so that as long as this node exists, the sc:targetAudiences would not be cascade deleted?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>If anybody has any ideas how to properly implement this, or where to look for answers, I would be very happy.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 09 Feb 2009 12:38:52 GMT akaariai 2009-02-09T12:38:52Z Dynamic Multilingual Lists https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/dynamic-multilingual-lists/m-p/193428#M146558 Hello all!I am new to Alfresco and I am wondering about best practices implementation for the following problem:I have a type, lets call it sc<IMG id="smileyvery-happy" class="emoticon emoticon-smileyvery-happy" src="https://migration33.stage.lithium.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-very-happy.png" alt="Smiley Very Happy" title="Smiley Very Happy" />oc.
