Cloning a Content Instance using ContentInstanceCloner

Sebas_P

Hi,

I am looking for cloning Content Instances using an API. I see a package com.vignette.as.common.util.clone and classes, but there is no or little documentation about how to use this. Anyone has used these for cloning?
I would highly appreciate if I can get some code samples.

Thanks

Seb

try this

ManagedObjectVCMRef sourceVCMRef = new ManagedObjectVCMRef(VCMID);

ContentInstanceBuilder builder = null;

builder = (ContentInstanceBuilder)BuilderFactory.getInstance(sourceVCMRef);

ContentInstance target = builder.build();

Good, so use the ContentInstanceBuikder. The other cloner is deprecated.

That did the trick. Thanks Anirudh!

Thanks. I was looking at the API reference of WEM 16, but didn't see it as deprecated, Anyway ContentInstanceBuilder approach did what I wanted.
