component generator in alfresco

mahajanakhil — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 14:37:55 GMT

I am a new user of Alfresco and using it as my application's repository.I have configured new attributes in alfresco.The problem is that I want to add component generators for these attributes. The attributes have types 'date' and 'numeric' in my application.<show-property name="qps:issueNumber"

One more thing: How can I see the various component generators available in Alfresco setup that I am using?

As long as you in your Alfresco implementation have a custom written component-generator with the name SimpleDomainValueWithBlankSelectorGenerator and that that one corresponds to a property in the property sheet, your configuration looks ok. To find out which ComponentGenerators that are available to you I suggest you seach for all implementors of the IComponentGenerator interface in your source code (and in Alfrescos source code as well) . For instructions on how to write generators of your own please have a look at the following wiki-page:

Hi.

I am not a developer, merely a DBA. But I am trying to accomplish it.

Could you please let me know where could I find the source code in Alfresco Installation Directory that would tell me about various component generators?

You will have to download the source code from the Alfresco subversion repository, its not provided in the installation packages. If you only need to browse the source code for generators, you can always try this link:

http://svn.alfresco.com/repos/alfresco-open-mirror/alfresco/HEAD/root/projects/web-client/source/java/org/alfresco/web/bean/generator/

Be aware of that you are browsing the trunk of the repository using this link, aka version 3.3alfa (or something). However as far as I know there are no new development taking place for the Alfresco Explorer, so those are probably the same classes as in your version.

Hello,

I'm trying to develop a component generator in Alfresco 3.3 for advanced search. In the wiki link says:

"Currently, only the property sheet uses component generators, this will spread to the advanced search as well in a future release"

Do you know if this option is already included?

Thank yoi
