And how we can use the webservice client with Alfresco 5.0? With another url?

Yes, we use SOAP, for example doing things like this:


RepositoryServiceSoapBindingStub repositoryService = SessionManager.getRepositoryService(sessionId);
Predicate pred = new Predicate();
pred.setNodes(new Reference[] { new Reference(STORE, null, alfPath) });
node = repositoryService.get(pred);

We can't use it with Alfresco 5.0?? We need to change all or only the Authentication?? I'm scared now…

"This API was removed in Alfresco 5.0 and is no longer available. Use the CMIS web services bindings instead."
