topic Display metadata in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/display-metadata/m-p/60568#M37449 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I am using Alfresco 1.4 </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have the following code which gets a piece of content from my repository, I use junit to run TestGetGuestDocument()… First off I would like to display the metadata for this content such as description and size and then hopefully the custom aspects I have applied to it.Is this possible ? How is it done?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Secondly I would like generate a list of documents based on a query. I would prefer to use xpath as we have used that before, but most examples seem to be for lucene and are not complete . Any help would be appreciated </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Dave</SPAN><BR /><BR /><PRE class="language-none line-numbers"><CODE> protected static final String USERNAME = ""<BR />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; protected static final String PASSWORD = "";<BR /><BR />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
