Hi.

I'm aware this is quite an old post, but having the exact same exception at the moment. Wondering if anyone else has come across it?

Writing a Java app based on the Web Server SDK to connect to MediaBin 4.6.1 SP1

I am updating the value of single metadata item in an area. Then setting the array of metadata items using the reviseAssetMetadata method back to the asset.

Thanks

Is yours also of type boolean? I've never had problems with that call, but I can't say I'd used boolean types before (and the obvious workaround is to switch that to a single-select list).

metadata[0].setMID("{2AC7CA8D-A52D-4DE2-BF13-0A94AD79F463}");
metadata[0].setMValue(true);

The above works for me.

Thanks for responses so far. I tried this method as you suggest but the exception is being thrown when I try and set the Revised Metadata on the asset.

Looks like I am doing this wrong but havent been able to find any docs to explain correct usage. Thanks in advance for any help.

The function below checks if an asset has a Metadata Text Item called "Strand".

It then attempts to update the value of this item to "Test"


    public static void ReviseAssetMetadata( MBAsset asset,MediaBinServerSoap mMediaBinServer ) throws Exception {
        if( mMediaBinServer == null )
   throw new Exception( "You have not connected to a MediaBin Web Service" );

        if( asset != null ){
            //This is the interface's collection
   ArrayOfMBMetadata arrMetadata = asset.getMetadata();

            if(arrMetadata != null){
                //this is the true array
                MBMetadata[] metadata = arrMetadata.getMBMetadata();
                String val = "Test";

                for(int i=0; i< metadata.length; i++){
                    if(metadata.getMName().equals("Strand")) {
                        metadata.setMValue(val);
                    }
                }
                arrMetadata.setMBMetadata(metadata);
                mMediaBinServer.reviseAssetMetadata(asset.getMID(),arrMetadata);
            }
  }
 }

What's the exact error message you're getting? I'm hoping you're not actually saying that meta item "Strand" is of type boolean, because then you've already answered your own problem if you're trying to set the value to "Test".

No "Strand" is type Text.

Server was unable to process request.--> MBException: The type must match the original. (0x80040449)

Couple things. One, you're revising the entire collection of the asset's metadata, probably including internal types, which is likely to blame for the problem. Add your edited metadata item to a new Array which contains only the single element you're updating. Two, double check that metadata.getMFormat().getMType().toString() is "String". Third, and only if you're still having issues, I've always done it by creating a new metadata item rather than changing the value of the existing. I.e.


MBMetadata[] myUpdate = new MBMetadata[1];
for (blah) {
  if(metadata.getMName().equals("Strand")) {
    myUpdate[0] = new MBMetadata();
    myUpdate[0].setMID(metadata.getMID());
    myUpdate[0].setMValue("Test");
  }
}
// call reviseAssetMetadata with myUpdate

Lastly, if you're using the MediaBinServer.jar compiled with TeamSite as opposed to one you've compiled from the WSDL, you should be passing MBMetadata[] to reviseAssetMetadata, as opposed to ArrayOfMBMetadata.

Thanks Rick,

Yes adding the metadata item to a new Array object seems to work for me.
