Connect to alfresco instance to get folders, subfolders and metadata information

[kartech11]

Is there a way I can connect to an alfresco instance via standalone java class and use the Java Public API. Something similar to the using JDBC to connect to the database? I basically want to get folders & sub folders within a site and all the documents within a folder along with its metadata. 

Any code snippets on how to connect to an alfresco instance or any links on how to go about this is much appreciated.

Hi,

Maybe you can use CMIS; Alfresco implements CMIS standard (Alfresco CMIS API)
