Don't use an editor that inserts "smart quotes".

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks MikeH,

I have used a better editor and it seems to have worked but am still having this exception when launching the Alfresco application

[file:/C:/Alfresco/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/extension/custom-vti.properties]

Before this exception, there were some ClassNotFoundException i encountered, which i had to paste the appropriate jar into the classpath of Alfresco

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.example.JavaDir cannot be cast to org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.AbstractWebScript

Looks like your class definition is wrong. Difficult to debug without source. I suggest you look at our code and see what you've done wrong.

Thanks,
Mike

I dont seems to find a fault with the source code,

package org.example;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import org.alfresco.repo.model.Repository;
import org.alfresco.service.cmr.repository.NodeRef;
import org.alfresco.web.scripts.Cache;
import org.alfresco.web.scripts.DeclarativeWebScript;
import org.alfresco.web.scripts.Status;
import org.alfresco.web.scripts.WebScriptException;
import org.alfresco.web.scripts.WebScriptRequest;

public class JavaDir extends DeclarativeWebScript {
   private Repository repository;

   public void setRepository(Repository repository) {
      this.repository = repository;
   }
   public Repository getRepository(){
      return repository;
   }

what am i actually doing wrong

DeclarativeWebScript is in org.springframework.extensions.webscripts so your "import" is incorrect.

I'm surprised you can even compile your code, I suspect you are compiling against an old version.

The DeclarativeWebScript class i extended is the same class on the code in the Alfresco Book am using, it got imported from
org.alfresco.web.scripts

Also from what i read, the DeclarativeWebScript class from org.alfresco.web.scripts is one of the two JAVA classes that implement the most difficult part of the interface org.alfresco.web.scripts.WebScript.

I dont understand it when u said i should import and use DeclarativeWebScript from org.Springframework.extensions.script

Am compiling the code against the alfresco-labs-sdk-3c SDK

Re: Exception Starting Server afte Spring framework Registration

You need to use the right / matching version of SDK.

I suspect you are using alfresco > 3.3 and your SDK is not for that version. In particular the web script framework moves to SpringSource in versions > 3.3.

The Labs 3c SDK is for Labs 3c only :!:
