How to get property of a KM folder?

[Former Member]

Dear all,

When I enabled the "versioning" and "approval" of a folder in KM repository, I can see the word "Versioning Enabled" and "Approval Enabled" at the detail page of a folder. However, I can't found any property or method can get this information from code. Do any one know how to get these informations?

Thanks

You may have to use different services to get these properties. Use Statemanagementservice to check weather approval process is enabled or not. You may have look at the web log at to get the reference to the service. you can use the method sResource.getUtils().isStatemanagementEnabled()

Hi Sam, hi Arul,

it's even easier:

FolderSettings folderSettings = new FolderSettings((ICollection) resource);
boolean isVersioningActivated = folderSettings.isEnhanced();
boolean isApprovalProcessActivated = folderSettings.isStatemanagementEnabled();

with folderSettings from com.sapportals.wcm.control.util.FolderSettings.

Hope it helps

Hi Detlev,

Does the class "FolderSettings" exist in EP5? Since I can't found it in the javadoc of PDK.

Besides, how can I check the access right of user "everyone" is removed from a folder? When I look into the ACL of a folder, I can't located the "Everyone".

Thanks

Hi Sam,

The easiest way is to look inside

If you would have done, you would have found it within knowledgemanagement/lib/wcmcontrol.jar; complete package is com/sapportals/wcm/control/util/FolderSettings.class.

In SAP EP Development, the golden rule sounds: "The less something is documented, the more helpful it will be."

For ACL introduction, see and referenced thread.

ACLs can exist on a resource or can be inherited (aclMan.getInheritedAcl(resource)!

If someone has certain rights you can check by acl.checkPermission(...).

Hope it helps
