How to use lucene to search a file by name to get a unique return file. I used "TEXT:"filename but get an exception (AxisFault). It appears that it return nothing or ??


Query query = new Query();
query.setLanguage(Constants.QUERY_LANG_LUCENE); 
query.setStatement("@cm\\:name:\"yourdocument.doc\"");

 … repositoryService.query(store, query, false);

How to invoke UploadContentServlet in web service program? Do I have to run the program on web server side or I can run from remote client machine has the client web service installed?

You want to upload a file?

Thanks, yours is working. How to add path before the file name? Such as
Query query = new Query(Constants.QUERY_LANG_LUCENE, "PATH:\"/app:company_home/cm:folder1/cm:folder2/……)

From the link code, how to control where (which folders) to upload the file?

Also, If I want to use the web service with upload servlet API, where to put the source file to be uploaded? Do I need to put the external source file inside web server(tomcat) directory? Then which directory? Or could I upload a file from remote client machine? and if so, which folder to put to make it uploaded programmatically by servlet URL connection call.

Thanks in advance.

Try following:


parentNode.setChildName(Constants.createQNameString(Constants.NAMESPACE_CONTENT_MODEL, normilizeNodeName( spaceName )));
newNodeProperties = new NamedValue[]{Utils.createNamedValue(Constants.PROP_NAME, spaceName )};

CMLCreate cmlCreate= new CMLCreate("1", parentNode, null, null, null, Constants.TYPE_FOLDER, newNodeProperties );
CML createSpaceCML= new CML();
createSpaceCML.setCreate(new CMLCreate[]{cmlCreate});

…

WebServiceFactory.getRepositoryService().update(cml);

That doesnt matter at all. As long as your Client and Server can communicate which each other you dont have to think about such a manner. The only thing you have to do is to set up binary upon the the API.

What I meant is that I want to do a search a document, I want to use the full node path in the query statement. For example:
the statement similar to:
Query query = new Query(Constants.QUERY_LANG_LUCENE, "PATH:\"/app:company_home/cm:space1/cm:space2/cm:GuardFile.txt\"");
But it does not work. how to make a correct query PATH for this example?
