Change ACL via CMIS

[janpetzold]

I set ACLs for nodes via JCR API and it worked directly. Now I'm trying to do the same via CMIS/Chemistry and it does not seem to work at all:

doc foo = Document ...

OperationContext operationContext = new OperationContextImpl();
operationContext.setIncludeAcls(true);

List<String> permissions = new ArrayList<String>();

permissions.add("cmis:write");

String principal = "me";
Ace aceIn = session.getObjectFactory().createAce(principal, permissions);
List<Ace> aceListIn = new ArrayList<Ace>();

aceListIn.add(aceIn);

doc.addAcl(aceListIn, AclPropagation.REPOSITORYDETERMINED);

Calling this triggers

org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.commons.exceptions.CmisNotSupportedException: Operation not supported by the repository for this object!

I tried that for both files and folders. I can also see that in the reported repository capabilities:

((RepositoryImpl) repository).getCapabilities().getAclCapability() = NONE

Anything I can do about it?

Dear ModeShape community,

The problem here is that ACL Capability is disabled by the ModeShape. Using repository info service we get:

{

    "default": {

        "repositoryId": "default",

        "repositoryName": "ModeShape",

          ...

        "capabilities": {

           ...

            "capabilityACL": "none"

        }

Is there any plans when the support for ACL will be enabled in CMIS Interface for ModeShape?

Best regards

Vitali, follow to that link ModeShape - JBoss Issue Tracker

However if you need this feature urgent you can implement it earlier and contribute it back.
