The sense of ObjectFactory::convertAces

[Sascha Egerer <sa...@dkd.de>]

Hello,

first of all I have to say that I’m not a Java developer and maybe misunderstand something.

Can somebody explain me the sense of the ObjectFactory::convertAces implementation? https://github.com/apache/chemistry-opencmis/blob/9b821292e708c24827ed526d4226b4308eff91bf/chemistry-opencmis-client/chemistry-opencmis-client-impl/src/main/java/org/apache/chemistry/opencmis/client/runtime/repository/ObjectFactoryImpl.java#L138

Is it just creating a new copy of the ACL object? I really don’t understand why it is used in SessionImpl::createDocument. https://github.com/apache/chemistry-opencmis/blob/2c897f70abd5fc5a3a20dec0b6df21b91000ad21/chemistry-opencmis-client/chemistry-opencmis-client-impl/src/main/java/org/apache/chemistry/opencmis/client/runtime/SessionImpl.java#L1085

Thanks and Greetz

Sascha

Hi Sascha,

The OpenCMIS client consists of two layers, a high-level API and a 
low-level API. The low-level API gives you full access to all CMIS 
features but is less convenient to use than the high-level API.
The task of the ObjectFactory is to convert low-level objects into 
high-level objects. In some cases, like convertAces, this is trivial. 
But an application can also provide a custom ObjectFactory 
implementation, which enhances or replaces OpenCMIS objects during the 
conversion. For example, a custom ObjectFactory implementation could 
override convertAces and add the first and last names of the users that 
are referenced in the ACEs to the returned high-level ACE objects.
The default implementation just copies the data without any changes.
