CMIS versioning after upload

[jerrycooper]

Hello,
is there ease way to switch off versioning of file, when it is upload through CMIS? I mean to upload file without versionable aspect, not remove versionable aspect after upload. Because when I upload a file, its everytime versioned.
I tried to change content model and alfresco-global.properties - no changes in behavior.


PS: Now I use Apache Workbench for testing

My hunch is that the versionable aspect is required in order for us to be spec-compliant and therefore cannot be removed. Well, it actually can be removed through the UI or a script, but the next time you check something in via CMIS it will be added back again.

If you want to change the binary content without creating a new version, use setContentStream.

Hi Jeff,

Is there any way to create a version of something after updating its content using setContentStream? If not, what method should I use?

Thanks in advance.

If you checkout the document then check it back in, a version will be created, but perhaps I'm not understanding the question.

Hi Jeff, is there any way to save the metadata of the files for each version?

No, because in Alfresco versions are not really independent objects.
