database access

[soeursourire]

Hi everybody!

I am writing to you for help about access to users entered in the database. I added an attribute "country" in MyNewUserWizard class (sub-class of NewUserWizard) and added it as aspect and prop and I would like to display this attribute for each user on the page users.jsp. How can I do?

It seems that fullname homeSpace etc.. are obtained from the final class repository:

<a:richList id="users-list" binding="#{UsersBean.usersRichList}" viewMode="details" pageSize="10"
styleClass="recordSet" headerStyleClass="recordSetHeader" rowStyleClass="recordSetRow" altRowStyleClass="recordSetRowAlt" width="100%"value="#{UsersBean.users}" var="r" initialSortColumn="userName" initialSortDescending="true">
[…]
<hutputText value="#{r.fullName}" />
                             
so how can I access the attribute "country" as I cannot create sub class of this final class repository?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I think I added a entry in webclient.properties..

But now I have other troubles after trying to add a calendar in a jsp page. I removed what I did for that but now I can compile and build my program but when I launch Alfresco I have error such as:

MBEANS THAT ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM

and I cannot launch Alfresco. How can I find from which bean the problem comes from exactly. Is there a way to debug the program with Eclipse ? (I am more used to VC++).

Thanks for your help.

Is there a way to debug the program with Eclipse ?

Yes there is, look here: http://www.alfresco.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=3669#3669

HTH,

[soeursourire]

Thanks a lot for your help… I found my error.

But I still cannot see my attribute Country in the properties of people of the system in Node Browser… despite aspect added etc.

Please would you mind telling me how the attributes of a class such as firstName, lastName, OrganizationId… are stored in the database after entered on the jsp page.

Is it, e.g., this code that stores the organizationId in MySQL?
props.put(ContentModel.PROP_ORGID, super.getCompanyId());
this.nodeService.setProperties(nodeRef, props);

Creating an aspect allows us to store an attribute into the database MySQL? What do I do wrong while doing that:
-I add an attribute department in my class MyNewUserWizard
-I add an aspect via extension-context.xml as follow:
<namespaces>
      <namespace uri="custom.model" prefix="custom"/>
   </namespaces>
    
   <!–types–>
  
   <!– Definition of new Content Aspect: Department of the user –>
    <aspects>
      <aspect name="custom:Myperson">
         <title>Department</title>
         <properties>
            <property name="custom:department">
               <type>d:text</type>
            </property>
         </properties>
      </aspect>
   </aspects>
-I add the variables in my sub class of ContentModel:
public interface MyContentModel extends ContentModel
{
    // person
    static final QName PROP_DEPARTMENT = QName.createQName("custom.model", "department");
    static final QName ASPECT_Myperson = QName.createQName("custom.model", "Myperson");
}
-I add this code in the function finish() of MyNewUserWizad:
Map<QName, Serializable> myprops = new HashMap<QName, Serializable>(5);
myprops.put(MyContentModel.PROP_DEPARTMENT, this.department);
this.nodeService.addAspect(nodeRef, MyContentModel.ASPECT_Myperson,myprops);

Is there another way to store attributes values in the database than using aspects?
Thanks in advance for your help

I guess I should do a type instead of an aspect? But how should I use employ it? If I want to add attributes to the type person how should I do, add my own person and repeat the properties firstname, lastname…. and use soemthing like nodeService.setType()?

[soeursourire]

When I added this type into customModel.xml and I am not using it yet:

   <type name="custom:Myperson">
         <title>MyPerson</title>
         <parent>sys:base</parent>
         <properties>
            <property name="custom:department">
               <type>d:text</type>
            </property>
         </properties>
      </type>
My program compiled but alfresco fails to launch. What is wrong here? I also added the import:
<import uri="http://www.alfresco.org/model/system/1.0" prefix="sys"/>
