WCM 2.0 data model not compatible with JCR

gr1zz_lee — Mon, 29 Jan 2007 13:07:17 GMT

I just installed the WCM 2.0 Preview and configured the JCR-RMI extension. I have a node browser application that connects over RMI to the alfresco repository. This application worked fine with the WCM 1.4 preview.I have the following problem when I try to get the string value of the cm:description

I found the following workaround by changing the types of the cm:titled aspect in in contentModel.xml from d:mltext to d:text.

      <aspect name="cm:titled">
         <title>Titled</title>
         <properties>
            <property name="cm:title">
               <title>Title</title>
               <type>d:text</type>
            </property>
            <property name="cm:description">
               <title>Description</title>
               <type>d:text</type>
            </property>
         </properties>
      </aspect>

But the contentModel.xml normally should not be edited.
What is the difference between d:mltext and d:text?

d:mltext is a new data type for supporting multi-lingual text i.e. storage and retrieval of locale specific values for a given property.

So, it's not anything to do with WCM.

It looks like a bug in the JCR layer which is not yet sensitive to d:mltext.

The workaround for now is as you have it.

This has been fixed for 2.0 final.
