Re: Another topic, something easy (I hope).
The version of Jackrabbit used within Sling supports versioning. So this is an area where you do need to use the JCR API directly in servlets or scripts of your own creation. I would strongly suggest you search the list archives for information on this subject as there have been plenty of discussions around versioning in the past.

First Question: Does the version of jackrabbit used with the launchpad support versioning? I see that there's some documents that talk about how to get I see in the sling docs this comment: checkin checkin:=(true|false) false The checkin directive specifies whether versionable nodes should be checked in. So using curl how would I create a node which is version-able? How can in insert a new value into that node replacing a value that exists already? How do I retrieve a pervious version of a node? Tony

Hello Tony, to get you started, some incomplete pointers. I think that its worth to repeat them here, although they are already archived at markmail: So using curl how would I create a node which is version-able? $ curl -Fjcr:mixinTypes=mix:versionable http:// How can in insert a new value into that node replacing a value that exists already? currentNode.checkin(); changeValue(); currentNode.checkout(); // correct sequence? How do I retrieve a pervious version of a node? https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SLING/FAQ#FAQ-HowdoIgeneratelinkstopreviousversionsofanode%3F Please feel free to post a complete protocol of how you worked it out! -- peter

No, a little bit different: currentNode.checkout(); // make the HEAD of the versioned node modifiable changeValue(); // modify using normal JCR ops session.save(); // save changes (this could happen multiple times between checkouts/ins) currentNode.checkin(); // archive a new version based on the current HEAD Regards, Alex -- Alexander Klimetschek alexander.klimetsc...@day.com
