Hello All,

I need help with creating share-config-custom file.
Actually I have two separate extension for two different custom datalist model in eclipse.
Each extension project has got share-config-custom.xml file.
When I build project and deploy jar files, I can't see changes configured into share-config-custom.xml file which is deployed later.
I saw some forums regarding this, I believe that Alfresco is overriding something.
Can someone please help me out?
I haven't use replace="true" as well in both share-config-custom.xml.

following is 1st share-config-custom.xml file:

Hello,

I found the solution.
I created custommodel-slingshot-application-context.xml as below:


<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>
<beans>
<bean id="custommodel.config" class="org.springframework.extensions.config.ConfigBootstrap" init-method="register">
<property name="configService" ref="web.config"/>
<property name="configs">
<list>
<value>classpath:alfresco/web-extension/share-config-custommodel.xml</value>
</list>
</property> 
</bean>
</beans>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and have changed name of share-config-custom.xml to share-config-custommodel.xml
that's all. I did this for both of my extension projects and have deployed successfully.
Hurray!!

Note: custommodel is name used for my custom models (projectmodel, tendermodel etc.)

Thanks krups, your post was very helpful. BTW, do you have automated method to update files in tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco? I use AMP to update alfresco.war - where the models reside, but have to update share forms files menually so far.
