Hi, While writing r/w Junit test cases for OpenCMIS client API I'm struggling a little bit with API usability. Creation methods require always parameter for access control and policy in spite of the fact that this is optional:
// create additional optional parameter List<Ace> aceAdd = new ArrayList<Ace>(); // all empty List<Ace> aceRemove = new ArrayList<Ace>(); List<Policy> pol = new ArrayList<Policy>; ObjectId newId = this.session.createFolder(properties, parentId, pol, aceAdd, aceRemove); Like we have introduced an operation context for read methods to sum up parameters I suggest to do it similar for write operation. My proposal is to introduce a AccessContext interface which could then have a default for addAcl, removeAcl and policy parameter. Let me know what do you think.
