Question

Hi,
I want create a new template for collaboration room, is it possible? How can do it?
My java code is:
package com.sap.ttt;
import com.sapportals.portal.prt.component.AbstractPortalComponent;
import com.sapportals.portal.prt.component.IPortalComponentRequest;
import com.sapportals.portal.prt.component.IPortalComponentResponse;
//imports for User Management
import com.sap.security.api.IUser;
import com.sap.security.api.UMFactory;
//imports for Portal
import com.sapportals.portal.prt.runtime.PortalRuntime;
//imports for Collaboration Rooms
import com.sap.ip.collaboration.room.api.IRoomInfo;
import com.sap.ip.collaboration.room.api.IRooms;
//import com.sap.ip.collaboration.room.api.IRoom;
import com.sap.ip.collaboration.room.api.IRoomCategoryFactory;
import com.sap.ip.collaboration.room.api.IRoomCategory;
import com.sap.ip.collaboration.room.api.template.IRoomRole;
import com.sap.ip.collaboration.room.api.template.ITemplate;
import com.sap.ip.collaboration.room.api.types.RoomPrivacyType;
public class ttt extends AbstractPortalComponent
IRoomInfo roomInfo;
public void doContent(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response) {
try {
String templateName = "taskroom";
String roleName1 = "Admin";
String roleName2 = "Member";
IRooms roomsAPI = (IRooms) PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(IRooms.PORTAL_SERVICE_ID);
IRoomCategoryFactory categoryName = roomsAPI.getRoomCategoryFactory();
IRoomCategory[] categoryInfo= categoryName.getRoomCategories();
//Get Template Related Infos
ITemplate template = roomsAPI.getRoomTemplate(templateName);
IRoomRole role1= template.getRoomRole(roleName1);
IRoomRole role2= template.getRoomRole(roleName2);
//Get an empty RoomInfo object
roomInfo = roomsAPI.getRoomCreationInfo();
//Fill RoomInfo object with values
roomInfo.setName("Programme ROOM_withDoc");
roomInfo.setDescription("New Room Description");
roomInfo.setTemplateName(templateName);
roomInfo.setCategories(categoryInfo);
roomInfo.addRoomParameter("Objectives","desc1","objective", false);
roomInfo.addRoomParameter("Start Date","desc2", "s date", false);
roomInfo.addRoomParameter("Target Date", "desc3","t date", false);
roomInfo.addRoomParameter("Initiatives", "desc4","initiatives", false);
roomInfo.addRoomParameter("Mission", "desc5", "mission", false);
roomInfo.addRoomParameter("Goal", "desc6","goal", false);
roomInfo.setPrivacy(RoomPrivacyType.DEFAULT);
//Set User Role Assignments
IUser owner = UMFactory.getUserFactory().getUserByLogonID("vishal");
IUser owner2 = UMFactory.getUserFactory().getUserByUniqueName("aditya");
roomInfo.setOwnerId(owner.getUniqueID());
roomInfo.addUserToRole(owner.getUniqueID(), role1);
roomInfo.addUserToRole(owner2.getUniqueID(), role2);
//Finally Create the Room
if(roomInfo.validate())
roomsAPI.createRoom(roomInfo, false);
response.write("/////room created sucessfully////");
//from here i want to create tasks
} catch ( Throwable e ) {
// Display exception
//response.write(roomInfo.g);
response.write("Application encountered an internal exception:" );
response.write(e.getMessage() );
e.printStackTrace( System.err );
response.write(e.toString());
//response.write(System.err);
} // catch
And my xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application>
  <application-config>
    <property name="SharingReference" value="usermanagement, knowledgemanagement, landscape, htmlb, exportalJCOclient, exportal"/>
    <property name="ServicesReference" value="com.sap.netweaver.coll.shared"/>
  </application-config>
  <components>
    <component name="ttt">
      <component-config>
        <property name="ClassName" value="com.sap.ttt.ttt"/>
      </component-config>
      <component-profile/>
    </component>
  </components>
  <services/>
</application>
But not appear the template, why?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Ravindrakvs,
cRoom templates are defined in portal.
Check with your portal team. They can provide you the path and details of cRoom templates.
