How to intercept add/get content and metadata calls?

Hello everybody,I need advice.I would like in Alfresco v5.1.g to intercept all calls (in Java API) which will create/get content and create/get its metadata. So my questions are:1. Is this possible at all?1. Is there a single place in Java API where these calls can be intercepted and where to look

Try using Alfresco Behaviours / Policies.

Thank you for your answer.

Maybe I can use behaviours before the node is created (to manipulate with content) but I need also a possibility to manipulate with node content when user try to download/view in browser/online edit the content.

The same thing is with metadata.

The perfect would be to have one single point (or few of them) where I can intercept all these get/set calls.

ok, In this case, check if Activity Service can be used.
