The xml example does not put anything into the ./files directory because the
definition in the domain.xml defines a file content store and the xml
example does not define any content. The example defines a directory
structure and nodes but that is stored in the memory descriptors store
(because the domain.xml does not define a descriptors store).
If you replace the store definition in domain.xml with:
<store name="myFileStore">
<contentstore name="A"
classname="slidestore.file.FileContentStoreNoVersioning">
<parameter name="rootpath">files</parameter>
</contentstore>
<nodestore name="B"
classname="slidestore.file.FileDescriptorsStoreNoVersioning">
<parameter name="rootpath">files</parameter>
</nodestore>
</store>
then you will get also the descriptors in files - only problem is that this
store is buggy. I have found a few that would prevent reading from the store
and will send them to the dev list.
A sample program that populates a file with content:
package xml;
import java.util.Enumeration;
import java.util.Vector;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.util.Date;
import org.apache.slide.structure.*;
import org.apache.slide.content.*;
import org.apache.slide.common.*;
import org.apache.slide.lock.*;
import org.apache.slide.security.*;
import org.apache.slide.authenticate.CredentialsToken;
import org.apache.slide.authenticate.SecurityToken;
/**
* This is a test class for XML support.
*/
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
NamespaceAccessToken token = null;
try {
token = Domain.accessNamespace(new SecurityToken(new String()),
"xml");
Structure structure = token.getStructureHelper();
Security security = token.getSecurityHelper();
Content content = token.getContentHelper();
CredentialsToken credToken =
new CredentialsToken(new String("root"));
SlideToken slideToken = new SlideToken(credToken);
System.out.println("Storing everything in the database");
try {
structure.retrieve(slideToken, "/toto");
} catch (StructureException e) {
System.out.println
("!!!!Objects don't exist : Creating objects ...");
SubjectNode subject1 = (SubjectNode)
structure.retrieve(slideToken, "/");
SubjectNode subject2 = new SubjectNode();
structure.create(slideToken, subject2, "/toto");
SubjectNode subject3 = new SubjectNode();
structure.create(slideToken, subject3, "/toto/1.txt");
NodeRevisionContent nrc = new NodeRevisionContent();
nrc.setContent("Hello World\n".getBytes());
NodeRevisionDescriptor nrd = new NodeRevisionDescriptor();
content.create(slideToken, "/toto/1.txt", nrd, nrc);
}
} catch (Throwable e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
System.out.println("Closing data sources");
Domain.closeNamespace(token);
}
}
}
