> I've met CMIS a couple of days ago, please forgive me in case the question is
> naive.
> I have a test case that is trying to create a document by passing the
> _*"cmis:folder"*_ ObjectTypeId (instead of _*"cmis:document"*_), and expects
> the test to fail.
> * With *Browser binding*, {color:#00875a}it fails with a
> CmisConstraintException{color}
> * With *WebService binding*, {color:#00875a}it fails with a
> CmisConstraintException{color}
> * With *AtomPub binding*,{color:#de350b} it creates a Folder, and then fails
> later with a CmisRuntimeException{color}
> While debugging the code, I've seen that *Browser binding* (along with
> *WebService binding*) has a *_createDocument()_* method in its [ObjectService
> implementation|https://github.com/apache/chemistry-opencmis/blob/trunk/chemistry-opencmis-server/chemistry-opencmis-server-bindings/src/main/java/org/apache/chemistry/opencmis/server/impl/browser/ObjectService.java#L88-L137]:

> The *AtomPub Binding*, instead, has a _*create()*_ method in its
> [ObjectService
> implementation|https://github.com/apache/chemistry-opencmis/blob/trunk/chemistry-opencmis-server/chemistry-opencmis-server-bindings/src/main/java/org/apache/chemistry/opencmis/server/impl/atompub/ObjectService.java#L79-L158]:
> !image-2021-05-18-00-06-14-967.png|width=984,height=1609!
> While the _*createDocument()*_ method allows us to check if the ObjectTypeId
> passed is the proper one (*_"cmis:document"_*), and to raise an error if an
> unexpected ObjectTypeId is passed, the _*create()*_ method is agnostic about
> the object to create, and forces us to perform a Switch on the ObjectTypeId
> to detect the proper action to call.
> Hence, calling _*createDocument()*_ with *AtomPub binding* and
> _*"cmis:folder"*_ ObjectTypeId will result in calling the _*create()*_
> method, and then in the switch reading _*"cmis:folder"*_ and calling the
> underlying _*createFolder()*_ method, instead of the underlying
> _*createDocument()*_ one.
> The folder will be created, then somewhere up in the chain[*] the error will
> be detected and will trigger a *CmisRuntimeException*, but that implies that,
> * for the same call, two different exceptions could be returned depending on
> the binding used
> * for the same call, the AtomPub binding will create an unwanted object
> before returning an error
> Could you please confirm me this is intended, and maybe shed some light on
> why the *AtomPub binding* is working with a different set of creational
> methods than the other bindings?
> Should we simply add a check in front of the calls to cover cases like this?
> [*] It's the [FolderImpl
> class|https://github.com/apache/chemistry-opencmis/blob/trunk/chemistry-opencmis-client/chemistry-opencmis-client-impl/src/main/java/org/apache/chemistry/opencmis/client/runtime/FolderImpl.java#L83-L103]
> that checks that the object created is of the expected type, and this seems
> an attempt to cope with the problem... but one that leaves debris behind,
> though (the folder created):
