hi justin,

I thought that "running on the server side" means i run code on the physical machine that hosts the jackrabbit and there I use an interface like RMI, DavEX..... to register my custom
node types.

AFAIK now I have to modify the jackrabbit code itself to register my new node types.
is this right?
In which file do I have to insert my code that does the node type registration?

Thanks a lot all of you for your help

best regards,
thomas

Why are you asking for code which will run on the server side if you are
unable to change the server's code?

Hi Alex,
Thanks for your help!

which interface could be used on serverside for registering nodes
programmatically?
( I am not able to change the servers code, so my only possibilities are
s small client application running on the server machine or the
configuration via config files)
As far as I understoud there is just RMI and DavEx interface to access
the Jackrabbit server.
Could you please post a small example? ( i know this question is asked
alot but never provided with an answer)
Thanks again for supporting me.

best regards,
Thomas

hi alex,

If i am not able to register new nodes via RMI and also not via DavEx,
whatelse could i do
to register my new nodetypes directly on server?

I also tried it with the XML file alternative:
----------------- my custom_nodetypes.xml in folder
\repository\nodetypes
-------------
<nodeTypes xmlns:myns="my-namespace"
        xmlns:nt="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/nt/1.0";>

<nodeType name="myns:javaobject"
         isMixin="true" hasOrderableChildNodes="false"
primaryItemName=""
         isAbstract="false">
 <supertypes>
   <supertype>nt:base</supertype>
 </supertypes>

  <propertyDefinition name="myns:hibernateid"
                     requiredType="String"
                     autoCreated="false"
                     mandatory="false"
                     onParentVersion="COPY"
                     protected="false"
                     multiple="false"/>

  <propertyDefinition name="myns:javaclass"
                     requiredType="String"
                     autoCreated="false"
                     mandatory="false"
                     onParentVersion="COPY"
                     protected="false"
                     multiple="false"/>

</nodeType>
</nodeTypes>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in Java i used it this way:
..........
filenode.addMixin("myns:javaobject");
          filenode.setProperty("myns:javaclass", myclass);
          filenode.setProperty("myns:hibernateid", myuuid);
.........

Here everthing works fine until i restart the jackrabbit server.
After this
my new nodetypes are not
accessible on old nodes, only on new created nodes.

Is there any working alternative for me to register my nodetypes?
Maybe programmatically or via Configuration files?
Programmatically on the server side. From an architectural point of
view I would do all repository administration related things
(including installation of node types) on the server itself.

If you have a lot of new node types for changing content structures
(ie. depending on usage of the system, not development), I'd consider
to become more (nt:)unstructured ;-)

Alex
