Hi Andreu, It is possible but there are 2 parts to doing this. Firstly, you need to be using the Alfresco CMIS extensions (this handles the Alfresco concept of aspects for you). Secondly, when trying to set properties defined on an aspect you need to provide the list of the aspects to apply in the ObjectTypeId property.
We have some documentation on how to do exactly what you want here: http://docs.alfresco.com/4.1/concepts/opencmis-ext-intro.html Also please note, if you are using Alfresco 4.2 or above you can use the CMIS 1.1 binding which has native support for “aspects”, known in CMIS as secondary types. Hope this helps, Gavin Cornwell Engineering Manager – Content Services Practice Alfresco Software Inc.

I have to save a custom object with extended properties defined. Im able to upload a document to the repository, and then, see the list of Aspects and properties, but i´m not capable to set the values before saving the document. (setting them in the ContentStream as a list of CmisExtensionElement), maybe this is not thw way to do this, i´m a little lost. Maybe with the code it becomes clearer: How I save the document: public static void createDocument(AnnexCustody document, String fileName, String fileType, String es, String numReg) throws FileNotFoundException { Session cmisSession = getCmisSession(); Folder parentFolder = null; String carpetaParePath = getPathCarpetaDocs()+"/"+FileUtils.getActualYear()+"/"+es+"/"+numReg; try { parentFolder = (Folder) cmisSession.getObjectByPath(carpetaParePath); }catch (CmisObjectNotFoundException onfEx) { parentFolder = createFoldersPath("/"+FileUtils.getActualYear()+"/"+es+"/"+numReg); } // properties (minim: name i object type id) Map properties = new HashMap(); properties.put(PropertyIds.OBJECT_TYPE_ID, "D:APBRegistro:anexo"); properties.put(PropertyIds.NAME, fileName); byte[] content = document.getData(); InputStream stream = new ByteArrayInputStream(content); ContentStream contentStream = new ContentStreamImpl(fileName, BigInteger.valueOf(content.length), fileType, stream); parentFolder.createDocument(properties, contentStream, VersioningState.MAJOR); } This code, uploads a custom object into the repository, and then i can list the extensions, with this other code: public static void printMetadataCMISobject(Document docmnt, ExtensionLevel eLvl) { if (eLvl!=null) { List extensions = docmnt.getExtensions(eLvl); System.out.println("#### IMPRIMIENDO EXTENSIONES DEL NIVEL "+eLvl.value() + " ####"); if (extensions!=null) { for(CmisExtensionElement ext: extensions) { System.out.println("Extension --> Name: " + ext.getName()); System.out.println("Extension --> NameSpace: " + ext.getNamespace()); System.out.println("Extension --> Value: " + ext.getValue()); for(CmisExtensionElement child: ext.getChildren()) { System.out.println(" - Extension Nvl2 --> Clild Name: " + child.getName()); System.out.println(" - Extension Nvl2 --> Clild NS: " + child.getNamespace()); System.out.println(" - Extension Nvl2 --> Clild Value: " + child.getValue()); for(CmisExtensionElement p_child: child.getChildren()) { System.out.println(" - Property --> Clild Name: " + p_child.getName()); System.out.println(" - Property --> Clild NS: " + p_child.getNamespace()); System.out.println(" - Property --> Clild Value: " + p_child.getValue()); Iterator attribs = p_child.getAttributes().keySet().iterator(); while(attribs.hasNext()) { String att_key = attribs.next(); System.out.println(" - Attribute --> "+att_key+"=" + p_child.getAttributes().get(att_key)); } } } } } System.out.println("#### FIN EXTENSIONES DEL NIVEL "+eLvl.value() + " ####"); } } Wich generates the following output: 16:21:10,491 INFO [STDOUT] #### IMPRIMIENDO EXTENSIONES DEL NIVEL properties #### 16:21:10,491 INFO [STDOUT] Extension --> Name: aspects 16:21:10,491 INFO [STDOUT] Extension --> NameSpace: http://www.alfresco.org 16:21:10,491 INFO [STDOUT] Extension --> Value: null 16:21:10,491 INFO [STDOUT] -
