The Apache Chemistry site has an Example Code page that shows how to create and update content via CMIS.

Also, this tutorial covers custom content types, but it also includes some OpenCMIS examples that cover queries, content creation, and association creation.

Unfortunately neither the Example Code page or the tutorial covers updating an existing document with new content, but the <a href="http://chemistry.apache.org/java/developing/guide.html">Developing with OpenCMIS guide</a> covers the process:

<java>
CmisObject file = session.getObjectByPath(folderPath + "/" + name);
Document docFile = (Document) file;
byte[] content = ("Hello World!").getBytes("UTF-8");
InputStream stream = new ByteArrayInputStream(content);
ContentStream contentStream = new ContentStreamImpl(name, BigInteger.valueOf(content.length), "text/plain; charset=UTF-8", stream);
docFile.setContentStream(contentStream, true);
</java>

Hello,

I have a requirement to append the document with new data. I worked CMIS but unfortunately there is no way to add new content to the existing document. All the methods are updating the document with new content and old data is being deleted. So my question is, is there anyway to append the new content to the existing document?

Please help on this….
