Hi,
I am planning to use open-scoped lock. For which , I need to persist the locktoken along with the node so that it can be used by another session for unlocking.Tested with Jackrabbit RMI client and it works fine.

But I am using jcr-mapping layer to achieve the above in my project.Here I want that as soon as a node is checked out, it gets locked by the session and the lock is stored in "lockToken" property of node "Document". For that I need to update the Document node after locking .

*public void checkout(String path)throws CMSException {
       pm = getPersistenceManager();
        try{
           pm.checkout(path);*
* String lockToken = pm.lock(path,true,false); ** Document doc = this.getDocument(path);** doc.setLockToken(lockToken); //for persisting lockToken
           doc.update();
        }catch(LockedException le){
System.out.println(le.getLockedNodePath() + "is locked by" + le.getLockOwner()); }catch(Exception e){
            throw new CMSException(e.getMessage(),e.getCause());
        }
   }*


Here doc.update() fails with Locked Exception. The problem here is PersistenceManagerImpl has a method checkIfNodeLocked(path) which returns LockException if node is locked. This method is checked before every update/insert. So, I am not able to update a locked node. I need to persist the locktoken in the node . What is the reason of checking for a lock before saving ? Ideally , it should throw error only if node is locked and session does not hold the lockToken .

If the session who has locked the node tries to save the node without unlocking, it should be allowed .

p.s.
I am able to achieve the above by simple Jackrabbit RMI client.
<code>
ClientRepositoryFactory factory = new ClientRepositoryFactory(); Repository repository = factory.getRepository("rmi://localhost:1101/jackrabbit"); Session session = repository.login(new SimpleCredentials("superuser", "superuser".toCharArray()),"Portal"); String user = session.getUserID(); String name = repository.getDescriptor(Repository.REP_NAME_DESC);
               System.out.println(
"Logged in as " + user + " to a " + name + " repository.");

               /* Testing the locks functionality */
Node n = session.getRootNode().getNode("cms/childfolder1/check.txt");

              * Lock lck = n.lock(true, false); // deeplock,open-scoped
               n.setProperty("ps:locktoken",lck.getLockToken());
               n.setProperty("ps:language", "sanskrit");
*
               System.out.println("Lock#isLive=" + lck.isLive());
System.out.println("Node#isLocked=" + session.getRootNode().getNode("cms/childfolder1/check.txt").isLocked());
               session.save();
               session.logout();
     <code>



Help appreciated.

Thanks,
Ruchi
