Creating Relationships
Hi all,
I'm using DotCMIS 0.6 to connect to Alfresco Community 4.2f, but am having problems creating a relationship from any folder to any other folder, and any folder to any other document. I can't create a relationship of type "cmis:relationship" because it is handily "uncreateable" and all other relationships are clearly wrappers around Alfresco association types, so would be unusable when I try to connect another repository.
Even if I decide to use an Alfresco type and just change it for different repositories, I can't work out which one to use because RelationshipType.GetAllowableSourceTypes and Relationship.GetAllowableTargetTypes is always just an empty list.
How do I create a relationship from any folder/doc to any other folder/doc.
My code:
Dictionary<string, string> parameters = new Dictionary<string, string>();
parameters[SessionParameter.BindingType] = BindingType.AtomPub;
string url = "http://localhost:8080/alfresco/cmisatom";
parameters[SessionParameter.AtomPubUrl] = url;
parameters[SessionParameter.User] = "admin";
parameters[SessionParameter.Password] = "admin";
SessionFactory factory = SessionFactory.NewInstance();
IList<IRepository> repositories = factory.GetRepositories(parameters);
ISession session = repositories[0].CreateSession();
IItemEnumerable<IObjectType> children = session.GetTypeChildren("cmis:relationship", true);
foreach (IObjectType child in children)
{
RelationshipType rel = child as RelationshipType;
Console.WriteLine(rel.Id + ": \n");
Console.WriteLine("\tSource Types:" );
foreach (IObjectType type in rel.GetAllowedSourceTypes)
{
Console.WriteLine("\t\t" + type.Id);
}
Console.WriteLine("\tTarget Types:");
foreach (IObjectType type in rel.GetAllowedTargetTypes)
{
Console.WriteLine("\t\t" + type.Id);
}
}
Kind Regards,
Phil.

Hi Philip,
If the allowable source types or the allowable target types lists are empty,
then any object can be the source respectively the target of this relationship.
(CMIS 1.1 spec, section 2.1.6.1.1)
It's the responsibility of the repository to provide the correct data here. If
you think that Alfresco provides wrong information, please discuss this in an
Alfresco forum.
