integration of Alfresco DMS and web client

lpiccoli

hi all

i am have been reading the alfresco docs and have and starting to have feel for alfresco integration into an existing application.

the existing j2ee application requires a Document Management System. The Alfresco DMS looks superb.

Q1. My question is whether my existing application can integrate the Alfresco web client (JSF client … i think) in side my application ear but allow the DMS repository to remain as a separate service?

Essentially i want to run the client GUI inside my j2ee application to make it look 'native' to my application, but run the DMS and repository as a separate application.

Q2. Is there a better way to achieve the integration with a native look and feel?

any help is appreciated

You might be able to work with the JSR 168 Portlet definitions to integrate content. The "cleaner" approach would be developing your own client, offering only those functions that you actually use.

The Alfresco Explorer is quite powerfull but for most "standard/non-it" users, checkin/checkout is a challenge already.

Truer than truth

about that, is there perhaps an option that hides the checkin/checkout icons of alfresco in windows explorer (using CIFS)?

Hi there,
with CIFS - that would mean hacking the CIFS protocol stack in Alfresco … but how can you distinguish between read acces by the explorer to list the files - and read access by notepad.exe to load the file for editing ?

The solution is - I am afraid, a GUI offering an "edit this file" function or using the sharepoint protocol, making your users open the file directly from inside MS office.
