Hi chic@s,

I try to copy a Instance of a ContentComponent (as ImageComponent,

QueryComponent etc.) with VCM/DP api.

This is my code (temp is an istance of QueryComponent):

-----------------------------------------------------------------

//Retrieve ContentType of temp

ContentType ct = (ContentType) temp.getObjectType();

//Save a XML of Component temp

String newXml = temp.toXML();

//Generate new GUID

String guid = GUID.generateString();

//Make new XML

//Moify XML

DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();

Document document = builder.parse(new InputSource(new

StringReader(newXml)));

NodeList nl = document.getElementsByTagName("VignVCMId");

nl.item(0).removeChild(nl.item(0).getChildNodes().item(0));

nl = document.getElementsByTagName("id");

nl.item(0).removeChild(nl.item(0).getChildNodes().item(0));

nl.item(0).appendChild(document.createTextNode(guid));

//Preparing output

StringWriter salida = new StringWriter();

TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer().transform(new

DOMSource(document), new StreamResult(salida));

out.println("<textarea cols='50' rows='20'>");

out.println("New XML: "+ salida);

//copia is a name of new ContentComponent

ContentComponent copia = null;

ObjectType ot = temp.getObjectType();

//Retrieve copia from a newXML

copia = (ContentComponent)ManagedObject.importXML(new

ObjectTypeRef(temp.getObjectType()), salida.toString(), false);

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I try to print a value of copia.toXML() the value of VignVCMId is

empty.

If I try to commit the object copia (copia.commit()), I encountred an

error;

javax.ejb.RemoveException.

We have any idea?

Thanks in advance

Nico
