Hi!

I need to copy a node in a different space.
I have seen that there is this interface http://dev.alfresco.com/resource/docs/java/repository/org/alfresco/service/cmr/repository/CopyService.html

I don't understand what are the parameters for copy.

Parameters:
        sourceNodeRef - the node reference used as the source of the copy
        targetParentNodeRef - the intended parent of the new node
        assocTypeQName - the type of the new child assoc
        assocQName - the qualified name of the child association from the parent to the new node
        copyChildren - indicates that the children of the node should also be copied
    Returns:
        the new node reference

If I have this function:

public void copyNode(String refSource, String parentRef, boolean copyChildren) {

Reference sourceNodeRef = getReference(refSource);
ParentReference parentReference = new ParentReference(sourceNodeRef.getStore(), sourceNodeRef.getUuid(), sourceNodeRef.getPath(),Constants.ASSOC_CONTAINS, Constants.ASSOC_CHILDREN);

CMLCopy copy = new CMLCopy(parentReference, parentRef, Constants.ASSOC_CONTAINS, QName.createQName(NamespaceService.CONTENT_MODEL_1_0_URI, "copy"), null, null, copyChildren);

//…
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

refSource is my source node, parentRef is my destination (i.e parent of the new node).
What I wrong?
The type of the new child assoc is good? and the qualified name?

thank you very much

If you use Explorer or Share you should use the cm namespace.  

The association to use is ASSOC_CONTAINS.   cm:contains or Constants.ASSOC_CONTAINS

The QName is the new name of your document.  .  so in your example QName.createQName(NamespaceService.CONTENT_MODEL_1_0_URI, "copy") has the name cm:copy     Substitute "copy" with whatever is appropriate.
