Integrating Slide with a Java Desktop Client

Hi all,

Please note that I am new to CMS.

Right now doing R&D for finding out a good Java based
open source CMS
solution, hence I came across Apache Slide.

Our Desktop client is done is Java Swing which is using a
J2EE server
and Oracle database.

Can I integrate Slide with our Swing client? Where in the
published
documents should get displayed in the client application
window (or a
child frame).

By integration, what I meant is: the ability to bypass login
to reach
published content, editing them, implementing permissions
from the ACL
exists in the main application (using our security details),
having the
view/edit functionality in the same interface based on the
permissions,
search functionality etc.

Hope I was clear enough.


Regards,
Vijesh

Hi,

You can integrate access to Slide into (almost) any java
client, so yes.

Myself I have developed a webbased and a swing-based client
in which users
can upload, download and remove documents (part of the
documents are
version-controlled others are not),create and delete
folders, edit text
documents and assign ACLs to the documents and to the
folders (of course if
they have permissions).

The slide server is integrated in a server application which
also controls
the authentication, authorisation is left to slides acls.

So I guess the short answer to what I understand you want to
is YES, it is
possible.

I can't say much about searching in slide, because I am not
using it, but
this is possible using DASL.
