> I'm implementing a Milton-based WebDAV adapter on top of Chemistry. One
> common operation that I haven't been able to map to Chemistry APIs is the
> copying of documents (files). In theory, I could create a new document and
> set all the values and content streams of the old one, but in our case
> (http://www.flexive.org) the repository doesn't expose all relevant data via
> Chemistry. However, copying documents is a trivial operation when performed
> using native repository methods (and it's probably faster too).
> For now, I created an extension that allows me to perform the copy operation:
> {code}public interface CopyDocumentExtension {
> CMISObject copy(Connection conn, ObjectId id);
> }{code}
> I think this method would be useful on all Chemistry documents (e.g.
> CMISObject or Document), similar to the "move" method that is also available
> for all objects. A "copyTo" method that accepts a target folder ID would also
> be nice.
