Content Server and Java

Hello

I installed Document Content Server. I am totally new in that kind of technology.

Now, when I want to access Content Server, I type the following URL:

I use my Windows user/password as login and everything is ok.

Now, I would like to build a Java client class to connect to the repository and execute some queries (to insert and to get documents for example).

How can I do that? where can I find documentation for this?

Thank you

Regards

To access a Documentum Content Server from Java you need the DFC (Documentum Foundation Classes) API. (Not the DFC Runtime environment.)

It can be downloaded from Subscribenet (+ javadoc, development guide,...).

There's lots of examples and guides on EMC Developer Network and Communty + the internet (google is your friend).

Also the DFC Fundamentals course is a good starter (if you have access to it).

Hello,

Thanks for your reply.

I found some samples and the needed documentation. However, now, i have errors because he cannot find needed classes (for example: com.emc.documentum.fs.rt.context.IServiceContext)

How can I know which JAR files I must put on the classpath?

Thanks

regards

You are not using DFC, but DFS.

DFC are java classes and interfaces that connect directly to Content Server.

DFS is the API to access Documentum through it's Webservices.

Ofcourse you can also use DFS for your requirements, but then you need to download the DFS SDK instead of DFC.

Imho, it's easier to start with DFC. DFS is way more complex.

DFC Java packages: com.documentum.fc.*

DFS Java packages: com.emc.documentum.fs.*

Be sure to use the correct jars + documentation.

DFC: dfc.jar + dependencies
