MultilingualContentService initialization

andrea_girardi — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 10:23:01 GMT

Hi all,I'm trying to add multilinguage aspect to a node for a massive upload. This is the code I'm trying to use: WebServiceFactory.setEndpointAddress(webServiceFactory); AuthenticationUtils.startSession(userName, password);ApplicationContext ctx = ApplicationContextHelper.getApplicationContext();Mu

Your code is wrong in different points, contains a mix of local and remote APIs of Alfresco:

the WebServiceFactory must be used only when you want to implement a remote Web Services SOAP client: probably you want to use the ServiceRegistry locally but it depends on your requirements

AuthenticationUtils.startSession create a new user session (remotely) against a remote Alfresco instance

ApplicationContextHelper.getApplicationContext() creates a local Alfresco instance in the local JVM!

Have you tried to take a look at samples in the Alfresco SDK? I suggest to download the SDK :wink:

What are your needs for your application?

The requirement I receive is to model some existing content available on a SQL Server database using Alfresco content management.

I created a batch java application that create a connection with Alfresco and create new content. I do all works (create new content and association) using WebServiceFactory, but, I didn't find any sample to add translation to a node using it so, for that reason, I tried to use ApplicationContextHelper.getApplicationContext().

How can I do that using WebServiceFactory? Where can I found an Example? Looking at SDK I didn't find anything.

Thanks for your reply!

You don't have that service exposed by the Web Services API, you need to create a custom action in the repository and then you can invoke this new custom action using the ActionService exposed by the Web Services API.

More information about custom action:

Hope this helps.
