First of all I have to get to know the modules in Alfresco and then how to integrate a new module in Alfresco
I don't know how does it work
I had a look on the development in the wiki Alfreco SDK without any progress.
I have all the SDK-packages in Eclipse but I don't how to use and how to integrate a new module in Alfresco in order to expand Alfresco for my own work
I hope for understanding
I would be glad for getting any little information

hello lion63

first of all it is helpful to read the wiki for modules:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/AMP_Files
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Developing_an_Alfresco_Module
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Module_Management_Tool

and there is a quite good overview to nealry all topics:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Developer_Guide

Dear Sir,
I have took the BasicAMP-Sample from SDK-Package in order to see the installation of a module.
I used the mmt in order to install the module into the War-File.
It did work
After this I copied the modified War into /tomcat/webapps/
and started the tomcat server again
but I expected the execution of the sentence "Demo Component has been loaded"
I can't see this on the console of tomcat

1.What do I wrong?

2. How can I integrate a visual class (in Eclipse) into Alfresco as a module.
   I want to integrate a metadata-editor in order to expand a document
   with more metadata.
   I want to open a Metadataeditor as a framework in alfresco
   are there any hints or good links in order to solve this challenge

Best regards

Hi,
first of all, please don't call me sir 🙂 I'm 25 😉

Sorry I've never tried the demo Basic AMP-Sample.
But it is good that you had success with installing the amp.

then you have copied the new war into the webapp directory,
and have you deleted the unpacked alfresco folder??

best regards

thanks a lot Roman,

yeah it works, thanks a lot

are there any good hints or links in order to involve visual classes (frameworks) in alfresco
I want to expand the function of alfresco for scientific work
a metadata editor should be displayed.
I want to use the offered Metadata Extraction by Alfresco and enrich a document with more metadata (I don't know how but I have to look for

)
therefore i need a further editor for the input of metadata
In this editor the existing metadata should be displayed and the user should be able to input further metadata

Best regards,

roman

hmm,
i don't know what you are exactly looking for

you can create own content types with properties (metadata for this objects)
and you can create aspects (a custom set of metadata) to different files

hope could help you

look here:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Data_Dictionary_Guide
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Dialog_Framework
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Displaying_Custom_Metadata

there is a lot to read before you can use/customize alfresco
it has a lot of features, just must know how to use it 🙂

best regards
