public interface WorkspaceOps

extends Serializable, EJBLocalObject

LibraryOps is a service for performing library functionality on virtual nodes. Nodes that are either versionable, and or have a life cycle may be managed through this api. Versionable and non-versionable nodes are handled the same through the life cycle. They are also handled the same through the versioning api, the only difference being that for versionable nodes, the version history is maintained. Both versionable and non-versionable nodes have a working version that is maintained through the life cycle.

This api only supports versioning and life cycle of content nodes. Hierarchy nodes may be created and deleted, but they will be published/unpublished at the same time and will not have version history.

             throws NoSuchNodeException,
                    RepositoryException

Checks in the latest version of the node with the specified id. Only the user who has checked out the node will be allowed to check in. This will unlock the node after checking it in to allow other users to perform checkout operations. Please review the javadoc for LifeCycle to better understand the available status transitions on checkin and what occurs for different transitions.

Parameters:

context - The content context object which contains the user profile information.

nodeId - The id of the node being checked in. properties as defined by the node type, or else a validation error will be thrown by the system.

Throws:

NoSuchNodeException - If the node does not exist

RepositoryException

                    RepositoryException

Checks in the node with the specified id. Only the user who has checked out the node will be allowed to check in. This will unlock the node after checking it in to allow other users to perform checkout operations. The following rules for setting the assignedToUser and assignedToRole fields will be applied for different status transitions during a checkin : Please review the javadoc for LifeCycle to better understand the available status transitions on checkin and what occurs for different transitions.

Parameters:
