Is Enterprise and Community Editions SDK same?I actually developed an API to call Alfresco services like Repository and Content Services. But before was using Enterprise Edition cuz was unaware about license now I want to shift it to Community Edition so would it be same????? my API would work perfe

Hi,
1) You can use 1.5
2) the SDKs are not identical, but it might be the APIs you use are identical. Depends on what you are using, but mostly, it will be the other way around - certain APIs exist in the community edition (e.g. workflow API in 3.0), which do not exist in the enterprise one. You will simply have to check every API call OR you did it right and developed JUnit Tests for all your classes, then a simple Junit Testrun will answer your question as well :twisted:

Thanks for the reply Norgan

I have developed my API to upload and download files from Alfresco repository through my java code. I hope the classes and functions and Repository, Content Services i called will be available in Community version too?
I'll try to configure it with jboss and jdk 1.5.0. Hopefully it will work. Or Else will i have to download and configure the older version of Community Edition? Is it 2.1? And can u provide me proper link to configure community version with jboss in linux and windows as well?

I'll be really thankful to you…
thanx

Just watch out which 1.5 version you use (see alfresco.sh for changing java-Options accordingly)

We can't guarantee Alfresco Community will work on JDK 1.5. It is tested on JDK 1.6. Its class files remain JDK 1.5 compatible.

Thanks guysss…

Yes i'll change things need to for jdk 1.5.0 i guess theres just jdk path il have to change but it will itself if i install jdk and set path before installing Alfresco. right?
And I hope my developed API, I won't have to change anything in that cuz shifting to Community addition.
