Question for all,
When i'm trying to locking a node for edit its properties, the lock was throw an exception as well as there is no User Context.
To set the user context i write the following snipe of code
AuthenticationUtil.runAs(new RunAsWork<String>(){
public String doWork()throws Exception{
return doProcess();
}
}, AuthenticationUtil.getSystemUserName());
and in the doProcess method i put the
RetryingTransactionCallback<String> callback = new RetryingTransactionCallback<String>() {
public String execute() throws Throwable {
// My Business Code
}
And i need to ask
- Why i need to use AuthenticationUtil.runAs() to put the user context for the locking operation ?
- Is to gain user context, or there are another several reasons ?
- Why i need to use RetryingTransactionCallback for put my business development lines ?
- Is for retrying the action, even if the action failed for locking as example, or there are other reasons ?
Your advise is highly appreciated.
