getChildren orderBy

karstene — Mon, 01 Oct 2012 09:26:12 GMT

I have a problem with the getChildren web service call with an "order by" parameter. I tested this with the public repository at cmis.alfresco.com/cmisws, for example with the following request:<ns1:getChildren xsi:type="ns1:getChildren"> <ns1:repositoryId>371554cd-ac06-40ba-98b8-e6b602

Hi,

Can you confirm your version of Alfresco … is it Community 4.0.d ? Have you tried the latest nightly build (of Community 4.2 preview) ?

Also, which version of the CMIS web service (WS) endpoint/binding are you using … 3.x or 4.x ? Do they both give the same result ?

Thanks,
Jan

Jan,

I tested with your public server at cmis.alfresco.com/cmisws, whatever release this is. I am using the new cmisws endpoint.

The same result shows with my internal installation of 4.0d CE, using the 4.x cmisws endpoint. I have not tried with a nightly build, nor with the 3.x endpoint, as this has different issues with my application.

thanks
Karsten

Ok, I think I can see the issue here. We do not currently support ordering by "cmis:baseTypeId". If I'm reading it correctly, the 1.0 spec does not specify whether this property should be orderable or not. Please feel free to log a JIRA improvement and we can see whether we can also co-relate with ALF-13968.

Many thanks,
Jan
