A process to create multiple JAR Definitions?

Hello,

I'm needing to create roughly 100 jar definitions from jar files that are in a single folder. I couldn't figure out a way to select multiple is there an easier way to do this?

I already got impatient and created a quick java file to bulk create .jardef xml files, copy the JAR file into the Composer project and create a random "xx/yyyyyy" folder underneath the "Project/content", but each time i use the program, Composer gives me the dreaded red x, and the message:

Description	Resource	Path	Location	Type
Content file 'Project/content/55/2147483647/servlet.jar' does not exist.	servlet.jardef	Project/Artifacts/JAR Definitions	org.eclipse.core.runtime	Problem

When this jar file clearly does exist. What's stranger, is if i open the xml of the .jardef and add a single space somewhere ( in an xml-compliant location.. ) in the xml, save the file the error will go away.

Any thoughts??

After adding the files externally have you tried doing a 'refresh' in Composer as this is really just Eclipse and has the same issues with files being added/updated externally

If you run your script in Eclipse then, edit its launch options and set it to refresh the Eclipse workspace after execution.

btw... In a recent 6.7 project I put all generated jars into "content/jar" folder. Worked fine. I edited the jardef XMLs (with a text editor) to change the path from the one supplied by Composer.

I put libs (like Apache POI) into folder "content/lib"

1. create a large api script to load all files to repository, e.g.:

create,c,dmc_jar,

set,c,l,object_name

file1.jar

set,c,l,acl_domain,

dm_dbo

set,c,l,acl_name,

BOF_acl

append,c,l,r_aspect_name

com.documentum.fc.bof.bootstrap.DfModuleItemChangeMonitor

setfile,c,l,file1.jar,jar

save,c,l

......

2. execute it

3. load all jar definitions to composer through standard import

My Java Application worked, when you go to install the documentum project it will automatically clean up all of them before it does the installation, so i posed the question too soon,

thanks all!
