Checkout/Checkin

[mrgrechkinn]

Hello,

I have custom type with custom child association. I create node, create one-two child and save it all.
Then I do checkout, in working copy I try delete all children (but they not exist for working copy) and create new, than checkin it.
But when I checkin node, I expect 2 child nodes but I have more. How I can fix it?

Thanks.

I think it is this bug: https://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-10717
In my case I noticed it for renditions /thumbnails.

Can please add a comment to this issue, or here and I will add the information.
In the comment add
-What version of alfresco and environment.
-What your custom data model look like
-Any steps to reproduce (preferably as a numbered list with exact steps)

I use Alfresco 3.4.4 Enterprise.

I have a simple model:

…………………
<type name="myprefix:field">
    <title>Dynamic field base type</title>
    <parent>sys:base</parent>
    <properties>
        <property name="myprefix:label">
            <type>d:text</type>
        </property>
    </properties>
    <associations>
        <child-association name="myprefix:constraints">
            <source>
                <mandatory>false</mandatory>
                <many>true</many>
            </source>
            <target>
                <class>myprefix:constraint</class>
                <mandatory>false</mandatory>
                <many>true</many>
            </target>
            <duplicate>false</duplicate>
        </child-association>
    </associations>
    <mandatory-aspects>
        <aspect>cm:versionable</aspect>
    </mandatory-aspects>
</type>

<type name="myprefix:constraint">
    <parent>sys:base</parent>
    <properties>
        <property name="myprefix:constraintName">
            <type>d:text</type>
            <mandatory enforced="true">true</mandatory>
        </property>
    </properties>
</type>

And I have a put webscript for update node

Get a my created node by noderef, this node with couple of child nodes

var node = search.findNode(${noderef});‍

Checkout node

var workingCopy = node.checkout();‍

Hm… working copy doesn't have a child nodes
Try to remove all children, but they doesn't exists

workingCopy.methodForRemoveChildren();‍

Then I create a child node

var childNode = workingCopy.createNode(null, "myprefix:constraint", "myprefix:constraints");
childNode.properties["myprefix:constraintName"] = "Test";
childNode.save();‍‍‍

Checkin working copy

node = workingCopy.checkin("Modify node", false);‍

But the old children exist in new version of node. But I expect only one child.

Thanks,
Eugene

Added a link from the issue to your post.

Meantime, do you want your association to be a child-association and get parent child relationship? Because you can do just an association, peer to peer relationship. Just asking, so that you havent missed that option.

[mrgrechkinn]

In this case I need exactly child-association.

Thanks,
Eugene

I suggest you raise a new issue for this if it is not fixed for you, since the other one is closed. Add links to that issue and this forum post.
