I am getting an error in method during importing

crimsonnav

my code is

IDfSession session = null;

IDfSessionManager sessMgr = null;

try

{

IDfClientX clientX =  new DfClientX();

sessMgr=createSessionManager( "user","password","repost");

System.out.println("--sessionmanager is created in the method----" );

session=createSession(sessMgr, "repost");

IDfImportOperation impOper = clientX.getImportOperation();IDfFile localFile = clientX.getFile( "Memo Approval/company/other/BMN-templete.xls");IDfImportNode impNode = (IDfImportNode) impOper.add(localFile);

System. out.println("---------- The file is obtained ---------- ");

impOper.setSession(session);

IDfId destId =  new DfId("<folder id >");

impOper.setDestinationFolderId(destId);

if

(impOper.execute())

{

System.

out.println("Import Operation Succeeded");

IDfDocument newObj = (IDfDocument)impNode.getNewObject();

// you can set any custom attr values on the document now

newObj.setString( "my_attr","someValue");

newObj.save();

System.out.println("Created Object: "

+ newObj.getObjectId());

}

else{System.IDfList errList = impOper.getErrors();out.println("Import Operation Failed.........");

for(int

i=0;i<errList.getCount();i++)

{

System. out.println(errList.getString(i));

}

}

}

//try block

catch

(Exception e){

e.printStackTrace();

}

finally

{

releaseSession(sessMgr,session);

System. out.println("--- session is released----");

}

I had written a method that should import the document from one of the folder to another folder.I have placed that document in a particular folder.

I am getting an error like.

 

com.documentum.operations.impl.DfFile cannot be cast to java.lang.String

If you search in the forum there are lots of sample code available –

https://community.emc.com/message/92452

for e.g -

IDfDocument document = (IDfDocument)dfcSession.newObject(dm_document); //or your custom typeobjectName ="test";//or what ever you likeIDfFolder destFolder = dfcSession.getFolderByPath(//cabnetName//your folder...);imageName = "c:/testData/abc.tiff" ;//this is the path of the file in your system that u want to importformat = "tiff" ;// or the format of file you are importing
//now set ant custom attributes to the object your are importingdocument.setString("attribute1","value1");document.setString("attribute2","value2");......
//ADD any remaining stuff you want
boolean status = importDocument(dfcSession ,objectName,destFolder,imageName,document,format);if ( status==true){document.save();}}//end of main


public boolean importDocument( IDfSession session,String objectName, IDfFolder folder, String filePath,IDfDocument document,String format) throws DfException {
try{// Create a dm_document object and set propertiesdocument.setObjectName( objectName ); document.setContentType(format);document.setFileEx( filePath, format.toLowerCase(), 0, null );

// Specify the folder in which to create the documentdocument.link( folder.getObjectId().toString() );
return true;}catch(DfException DF) { 
DF.printStackTrace();return false;}catch(Exception e){ e.printStackTrace();return false;}
