http://portal.krypthonas.de Some thoughts about ECM, Alfresco, BPM, JEE and other things Sun, 22 Nov 2009 12:02:59 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en This week i was in struggle with a realy strange issue in Alfresco.

Im accustomed to add a business time directly on workflowstart so i can set my variables in the processdefinition in the right manner. For instance: <timer duedate="#{myDueDate}"> <action>...</action> </timer> And this was my AlfrescoCode: workflowParameters.put("dueDate", "10 business days"); workflowService.startWorkflow(def.id, workflowParameters); So it doesnt ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/11/03/a-jbpm-timer-is-not-a-jbpm-timer-in-relation-to-alfresco/ Well, its been a while i´ve cryed out so much terrible words as by now. JBPM 4 is cool in many details, especially the Service-API (i guess its stolen from Alfresco, its biggest implementor i guess). Yesterday - on Sunday - i´ve tried to implement my custom task-logic from JBPM 3... i ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/09/07/jbpm-4-a-new-tale-with-to-much-obstacles-right-now/ Well met. Next days  a new Article gets released which i´ve wrote some months ago. The article handles about ECM, particulary catches-up the Performance-Corner, focussing Alfresco in association with the State-Of-The-Art Database Oracle. The main question where the most time will be spended in the article belongs to the issue on how ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/08/12/stay-tuned-on-oracle-magazine-doag/ Very well. On my work some people are in fraud with its business-contacts that must be managed twice: VTiger (a CRM-TOOL) as well as in Alfresco. We´ve had looking for a cool solution that brings together all those peaces to get rid of the management-overhead. And we found... nothing... realy ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/08/08/just-married-alfresco-vtiger/ What we´ve seen from my last post about the tales through the features of the newest Alfresco Version was just the first trick. The second trick belongs to the documentLibrary of share: How can we pimp the document-library for our custom Document-Types? Well, if we want to provide additional menu-items ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/08/04/alfresco-32-share-pimp-the-document-library-for-custom-document-types/ Alfresco 3.2 bears new cool features to the community, especially an easy way to display custom metadata in Share. Actually it was´nt possible, displaying custom metadata-properties in Share without doing customizations on the underlying Share/SURF-Code. Well these times are over ... almost over! If you using an association between two nodes, you ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/07/25/alfresco-32-share-formsservice-is-cool-but-whats-about-associations/ Well i lovin it, using actionListener of JSF as the results of it is nothing less than the object itself, stored as a parameter of a UICommandButton or UICommandLink.

For instance, following line gives me the whole object back: value="#{WorkflowManager.taskInstances}" rows="15" ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/07/22/re-attaching-hibernate-objects-in-new-transaction/ Today it was a realy "relaxing" day for me at work... it was just like dreaming about the mention to send a REALY private message to a customer rather than to send it to a friend! Yes that was a strike! But for my relief the customer wasnt angry rather than ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/07/08/stay-tuned-on-it-republikde/ Icefaces supports drag-and-drop functinality regarding its component-library. For sure its easily to implement with much more issues afterwards. Some things brought me almost to cry. If you have a droplistener on your dropArea, your calling event does probably  not bearing your dragged value. #{workflowTask.name} Drop Target 1 As you can ... http://portal.krypthonas.de/2009/07/04/curb-the-belly-of-the-beast-drag-drop-serverrequest-hell-and-icefaces/
