RE: Need Help !
Yes, you got me completely right. You are great !! :)
I really appreciate your response.
A point that I want to clear is that: I need a user using my CMS client to
have his document stored in both my own CMS repository and also Slide-WebDAV
repository (if it is up and running) . So that he can add/view documents
through my CMS client and also take the WebDAV facilities (if Slide is up
and running) to add documents to my CMS through web folders. That's is why I
thought of using webdav client library instead of the inverse approach cos
I need the document added by my CMS client to be added to the webdav as well
and vise versa (detect events on web folders and let my CMS respond to it).
Now I need to know when will the 2.1 get released? Should I wait for the
release version or I can work with the given 2.1 material on the jakarta
site? And where to get a documentations or examples on that?
A point that I want to raise again is that the documentation is really weak
:( .. And am getting really out of ideas ! :( if this mailing list wasn't
there, I would have gave up by now, so Thanx again for the reply!! And
please keep in touch :))

Ok, let me see if I understand you correctly here.
You're trying to integrate your CMS and Slide by modifying your CMS to use
Slide as its repository. Using the webdav client library you've done this,
but you want to be able to use other webdav clients (WebFolders), and since
those will access Slide directly you need a way make Slide aware of the
business rules in your CMS that govern access to content.
Correct me if I got any of that wrong.
I see two ways to accomplish this:
1) The way Slide is usually integrated with other CMSs is an inverse of the
approach you've taken. Slide has an extendable Store architecture which
would allow it to use *your* CMS to store data, rather than your CMS using
Slide to store data. You would then use this Store interface to tell Slide
how your access model works and Slide would take care of access checking for
all requests.
At the moment writing a Store implementation is not trivial, due mostly to a
lack of documentation and a steep learning curve. We're working on that,
though ;). If you want to take this approach, it will probably give you the
best result.
2) There's an event framework in the upcoming Slide release (2.1) that you
may be able to take advantage of here. What you would need to is create
Event Listeners for the different access requests. These event listeners
would then communicate with your CMS and check that the user making the
request has the appropriate rights. If access is denied to the user the
listeners would throw a Veto exception and Slide would cancel the request.

Ok, let me see if I understand you correctly here.
You're trying to integrate your CMS and Slide by modifying your CMS to
use Slide as its repository. Using the webdav client library you've done
this, but you want to be able to use other webdav clients (WebFolders),
and since those will access Slide directly you need a way make Slide
aware of the business rules in your CMS that govern access to content.
Correct me if I got any of that wrong.
I see two ways to accomplish this:
1) The way Slide is usually integrated with other CMSs is an inverse of
the approach you've taken. Slide has an extendable Store architecture
which would allow it to use *your* CMS to store data, rather than your

access checking for all requests.
At the moment writing a Store implementation is not trivial, due mostly
to a lack of documentation and a steep learning curve. We're working on
that, though ;). If you want to take this approach, it will probably
give you the best result.
2) There's an event framework in the upcoming Slide release (2.1) that
you may be able to take advantage of here. What you would need to is
create Event Listeners for the different access requests. These event
listeners would then communicate with your CMS and check that the user
making the request has the appropriate rights. If access is denied to
the user the listeners would throw a Veto exception and Slide would
cancel the request.

Well, here is my sample code:

res = new WebdavResource(homeUrl);
File f = new File("c:\\test.txt");
boolean b = res.putMethod("/webapp/slide/files/test.txt", f);
That was how to add a document to slide.
And that is how I can retrieve documents from Slide store
for (Iterator i = res.listBasic().iterator(); i.hasNext(); )
{
String []arr2 = (String [])i.next();
for (int j=0 ; j< arr2.length; j++)
{
System.out.println(arr2[j]);
}
}
So that I can add/view documents, Now I need to know how to respond to the
addition/deletion and all the actions that happens from Windows Explorer.
I also need to let My CMS access rules apply on The Wndows Explorer
repository.
Am I going on the right way??

How did you achieve the integration? Was it by writing a Store

respond to the addition/deletion of files.
As for access, if you implement SecurityStore you can decide how to map the
NodePermission objects to access rights in your CMS.

Hi,
I am trying to integrate my own CMS (Content Management System) to Slide, I
succeeded in adding/viewing my documents from my own CMS client to the slide

My next step is that I need to let my CMS responds to the addition/deletion

Also I need to apply my OWN CMS access rules to the windows web folders.
Any tiny idea will be highly appreciated..
