How to modify a java method in Folder component

Question

Hi,
I need to add some custom java code after a java method in Folder component (I am using UCM 10g, the java method is "buildResultSet" in service "COLLECTION_COPY_LOT").
I defined service handler as described in Bex's book. My static table is:
<@table custom_ServiceHandler@>
<tr>
<td>serviceName</td><td>handler</td><td>searchOrder</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Service</td><td>myPackage.MyClass</td><td>1</td>
</tr>
</table>
Java code is :
package myPackage
public class MyClass extends ServiceHandler {
public void buildResultSet() trows DataException,ServiceException
............. mu custom code
m_service.doCodeEx("",this);
If a change java method to addFiles and in static table Service to DocService, when i execute Checkin_new service it executes my custom code. I tried to change to loadorder, but have no success.
Pls someone to tell me how can i modify this method or any other java method in "COLLECTION_COPY_LOT" service. Do i have to make some additional settings ? What other ways to modify java methods i should try ?
I hope someone who has done someything like this to help me out.
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

A service handler might be the right way to run some code at the end of a service call (another way would be to make use of filters).
First, make sure your static table is merged with ServiceHandlers.
Secondary, change your custom method name into one that is not already in the service definition of COLLECTION_COPY_LOT (preferably a unique method name like collectionCopyLotLastAction that describes its purpose) and remove the following line from your code:
m_service.doCodeEx("",this);Now create a service definition for COLLECTION_COPY_LOT in your custom component based on the original COLLECTION_COPY_LOT (copy paste from the original service definition) and add you own method collectionCopyLotLastAction as the last step in the service. Play with the load order to make sure CS is using your service definition of COLLECTION_COPY_LOT instead of the original.
