Add aspect to type

[sihnu]

Hi,

I've defined a custom aspect in my own custom model and now I would like to add that aspect to a type in another custom model I've made. I've tried importing it. This is the namespace in the model where the aspect is defined:

<namespace uri="http://www.alfresco.com/model/test-model/1.0" prefix="test"/>‍

And this is the import in the model where the type is defined:

<import uri="http://www.alfresco.com/model/test-model/1.0" prefix="test"/>‍

For some reason this breaks my Alfresco. Both of those models works fine alone. This is the way I would add the aspect to my type. Though not got that far as the import breaks it. Anyway, I'm not sure if this is the right way so I paste it here now:

<mandatory-aspects>
   <aspect>test:testaspect</aspect>
</mandatory-aspects>‍‍‍

I'm doing it wrong so could someone help me how to do it properly? Until then I will just define the aspect in the model where the type is defined also. But this breaks the idea of aspects, doesn't it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sihnu,

This code seems to  be fine  . If you can attach the  models where you have defined aspect and the content type then it would be helpful to find out the issue.

Thanks,

Thanks for the answer.

I can't post the models right now but I will asap. Anyway, I stumbled on the same error later… The import really seems to be causing the error. I copied a bpmModel to extension/model folder and changed the name to custombpmModel. Then I changed import from original bpmModel to the model I copied to my extension folder. It worked with the original bpmModel but is not working with the new one even though I've only changed the name of the model and nothing else. I don't understand why this is happening.

I will paste the whole model here tomorrow. Hope something will pop out.

Here are the models:

This is the model where the apsect should be imported:

And this is the model where to the asepct is imported:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

     </aspects>
</model>

I would like to have the aspect task in the formed model but importing the model breaks it like I told earlier. Both of these models work fine alone.
