Creating a Document using DFS

Question

Hello,

To create a document in the documentum 6.5 using DFS, to add the file to the dataobject i used this sentence.

sampleDataObject.getContents().add(new FileContent(testFile.getAbsolutePath(), cont_type));

Everything worked perfect, but now instead of using the path to the file, I have the file content itself coded in base 64(So, it will be a String). The decode operation is not a problem, but i don't know how to create a file having the content instead of the file path.

I have been looking for a function in the API to add the content using the file content instead of the path and havent seen anything.

How could I achieve this?

Thank you.

Have you tried to use the BinaryContent class instead of FileContent?

From the DFS Development Guide 6.5, page 152:

It is recommended to use FileContent or UcfContent objects for UCF transfer, and BinaryContent for MTOM and base64.
