In our next fixpack for the FileNet CMIS 1.1 tech preview server we will be shipping support for CMIS 1.1 Type Mutability. In the process of getting ready for this I realized that this is not a subject we ever covered in the Manning CMIS book, nor it discussed anywhere here:
http://chemistry.apache.org/java/developing/index.html So our clients will not be able to find any working examples showing how to do this (somewhat advanced) operation using OpenCMIS. To address this I have written a (generic) Java command-line example that has no dependencies other than OpenCMIS and Java. This sample code creates a sub-type of cmis:document with 4 new properties (one of each { Integer, Boolean, Id and String } and an associated choice list for the String. (checking first that these are creatable property types) The code is a few hundred lines long but is very simple to follow and I believe would make a good addition to the http://chemistry.apache.org/java/examples/index.html (examples) section. If you feel this code would make a useful contribution please let me know along with instructions of how you would like to proceed. Thanks.
