scriptNode.sourceAssocs instead of assocs for targets?

hu2hugo — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 13:29:39 GMT

Is there a way to get the source associations of a node? assocs returns only the target association.I found org.alfresco.repo.jscript.ScriptNode.getSourceAssocs() in the code but I don't understand how the java object is hooked to the javascript object.Thanks,Marc

I assume you have a dev/labs build as getSourceAssocs was only added to the JavaScript ScriptNode API in the last month or so. That is why it is not documented yet

You want something like this

var sourceAssocs = node.sourceAssocs;

This returns a map of assoc qname to a list of nodes. Basically it works identically to the node.assocs Target Associations API that you have already used but it returns source assocs instead.

Thanks Kevin, source and running instance were indeed out of sync ops:. Everything is fine now.
