Create readonly property

Hi,

I'm trying to register my own node that contains a read-only property (set
only when the node is created). So my CND definition looks like this:

[test:nodeDef] > mix:versionable
- test:protectedproperty (STRING) protected mandatory

But then I do not know how to create the node and insert it into my
repository. Because when I try this:

Node rootnode = session.getRootNode();
Node testNode = rootnode.addNode("testNode", "test:nodeDef");
testnode.setProperty("test:protectedproperty", "my text");
session.save();

I get an error "javax.servlet.ServletException:
javax.jcr.nodetype.ConstraintViolationException: Unable to perform
operation. Node is protected."

So is there a way how to create a node, set its properties and then insert
it into a repository? Or how should I reach my goal?

Thanks a lot for any help.

Regards

Kamil

Hi,

Really nobody knows a solution? I suppose there is an API in a jackrabbit
library that allows it, but I haven't found any so far. Could anybody please
help me? Thanks a lot.

Protected properties/nodes are only available to the implementation, you
can't define custom ones (as protected means that you can't change them
through the JCR API).

This was asked multiple times already:
