Hi Christophe,
Thanks for responding. When will be the case when u would like to use
same JCRNodeType for the entire class heirrachy ? I see in the tests, in
most heirrachy cases , each class in heirrachy is mapped to a different
custom nodetype, right.
I am using this mapping file :
graffito-jcr
class-descriptor className=com.sun.portal.cms.model.Ad
jcrNodeType=nt:unstructured discriminator=false
!-- Field-descriptor is used to map simple attributes to jcr property --
field-descriptor fieldName=path path=true /
field-descriptor fieldName=title jcrName=title /
field-descriptor fieldName=text jcrName=text /
field-descriptor fieldName=imageAsBinary jcrName=imageAsBinary /
field-descriptor fieldName=imageAsLink jcrName=imageAsLink /
collection-descriptor fieldName=links jcrName=links
elementClassName=java.lang.String
collectionConverter=org.apache.portals.graffito.jcr.persistence.collectionconverter.impl.MultiValueCollectionConverterImpl
/
/
/class-descriptor
/graffito-jcr
This is for mapping simple java class (without any heirrachies.) to jcr
node.
After saving Ad object, I am able to get it back via passing the path
for that node.
Ad ad = (Ad)pm.getObject(/ad);
but when I pass title as filter and try to search for ad,
public Ad getAd(String title){
Filter filter = qm.createFilter(Ad.class);
filter.addEqualTo(title, title);
Query query = qm.createQuery(filter);
Ad ad = (Ad)pm.getObject(query);
return ad;
};
it does not let me do.
What am I missing ?
I ran the tests and they work fine.
I am also evaluating the versioning of nodes. Checked this with
jsr170 calls , but now wish to do the same using OCM . Is versioning not
possible for the above mentioned node , which does not have a custom
node type.
I see this being used in tests only for custom node types like
graffito:document where isMixin=true
Thanks in advance,
Ruchi

Hi Ruchi,
If you want to use the same JCR node type for the complete class
hierarchy, you have to specify discriminator = true. By this way, the
persistence manager will add a new property which will contain the
object class. This is technique is often used in ORM.
This property is used to instantiate correctly the object.
If you set the discriminator = false, it means that your have one
different JCR node type per class for the complete hierarchy. That
means the discriminator is not necessary. Thanks to the jcr node type
it is possible to retrieve the right java class.
Are you using JCR custom node types ? You can send me your OCM mapping
file.
There are some examples in the unit tests.

Hi,
I am trying a simple save and then query for a java object via
jcrmapping.
I ahve two questions :
1. What is the concept of discriminator and when is it set to
true/false ?
2. I have set discriminator = falsein mapping file.In a successive save
and read , I am able to save a node via the following :
Ad ad = new Ad();
ad.setPath(/ad);
ad.setTitle(IT);
ad.setText(This ad is for IT jobs);
ad.setImageAsLink(http://http://incubator.apache.org/images/apache-incubator-logo.png;);
Collection links = new ArrayList();
links.add((String)http://yahoo.com;);
links.add((String)http://google.com;);
ad.setLinks(links);
try{
FileInputStream fis = new
FileInputStream(c:/tmp/Sun_logo.gif);
ad.setImageAsBinary(fis);
}catch(IOException ioe){
System.out.println(ioe.getMessage());
System.exit(0);
}
pm.insert(ad);
pm.save();
, but when I try to read it back via following :
public Ad getAd(String title){
Filter filter = qm.createFilter(Ad.class);
filter.addEqualTo(title, title);
Query query = qm.createQuery(filter);
Ad ad = (Ad)pm.getObject(query);
return ad;
};
The result says :
Exception in thread main
org.apache.portals.graffito.jcr.exception.PersistenceException:
Impossible to get the object - the query returns more than one object

at com.sun.portal.cms.Test.testReadAd(Test.java:57)
at com.sun.portal.cms.Test.main(Test.java:69)
while I check in the repository, I have exactly one node with this
title.
If I try to read the collection of objects ,
I get the following error :
Exception in thread main
org.apache.portals.graffito.jcr.exception.JcrMappingException:
Impossible to find the classdescriptor for /ad. There is no
