Like all good systems, Folder Map has its share of limitations that we should be cognizant of while designing mapping rules for content.
Listed below are some of the limitations of Folder Map in Web Publisher. For an exhaustive coverage of Folder Mapping, please go through the Documentum Web Publisher Administrator guide.
- Web Publisher does not allow you to change the name of the Folder Map file (
FolderMap.xml). - The permission set (ACL) for
FolderMap.xmlis by default WebPublisher User Default ACL and cannot be changed. - If the folder structure (specified in
FolderMap.xml)does not exist in the Docbase, Folder Mapping automatically creates the folders in the Docbase. However, if the specified Web Cabinet does not exist in the Docbase, Folder Mapping does not automatically create it and throws an error instead. - Folder mapping works from the topmost rule of the
FolderMap.xmlfile to the last rule specified in the file. We need to define the specific rules first and then follow up with some generic rules. For those familiar with exception handling best practices in Java, this is analogous to catching the application-specific exceptions before handling generic exceptions. - As soon as a particular rule is matched, Folder Mapping stops scanning the
FolderMap.xmlfile further.
Enough of theory? Let us now understand how Folder Mapping works with the aid of a few practical examples.
