cm:content Property upload interface

[sirdodger]

Hi,

I have a custom model, and that model has two cm:content properties.  (One is called "original" and one is called "derived".)

    <property name="myriginal" multiple="true">
        <type>d:content</type>
    </property>

    <property name="my:derived" multiple="true">
        <type>d:content</type>
    </property>

When I add fields to the UI using:

    <show-property name="myriginal" show-in-edit-mode="true" />
    <show-property name="my:derived" show-in-edit-mode="true" />

It displays a text box, presumably looking for a URI.  How can I hook into the normal content upload box to upload to the repository, and then reference that file?  Is there an appropriate serial-file-upload wizard which I can use to upload multiple files into each?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, the property sheet does not handle the d:content property type.

You will need to add custom support for handling these types of properties. Hopefully support will be added in 1.4 for this scenario.

Thanks for the speedy response!

Just wondering if there are any news on this feature… cannot find any information about it in the Wiki (http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Roadmap#Web_Client_Improvements)

Thanks!
