Repoint utility for Documentum Updated for 6.5 and 6.5 SP1
Written by Håkan Ståby   

I have updated the Repoint Utility to work with Documentum 6.5 and 6.5 SP1. Feel free to download the update. The software is provided as is and contains no warranties of any kind. The original code can be found here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/repoint. I did NOT write Repoint, I only recompiled it.

What Repoint is

The Repository Interrogation Utility(RepoInt) allows a user to navigate Documentum repositories, perform a properties dump, view the type tree of a repository and run DQL or xDQL queries. This release contains the beta DFC scripting view.

 

Installation instructions
Install a SUN Java SDK (tested with version 1.5.X) from java.sun.com
Install Eclipse from eclipse.org.
Install DFC 6.5 or 6.5 SP1 from EMC.

Download repoint from here. Repoint6.5.zip.

Unzip the contents to the eclipse plugin directory.

Copy required files into ECLIPSE_HOME\plugins\com.documentum.dfc_1.0.0\lib. Here is a list of the required JAR-files. I added dcm.jar for DCM functionality (If you don't know what that is you don't need it). You may need other jars depending on your system.

aspectjrt.jar
certjFIPS.jar
configservice-api.jar
configservice-impl.jar
dcm.jar
DDS.jar
dfc.jar
jsafeFIPS.jar
log4j.jar
serializer.jar
xalan.jar
xercesImpl.jar
xml-apis.jar

Open a CMD prompt and navigate to DOCUMENTUM\config. The files dfc.properties and log4j.properties needs to be added to a jar file for the Documentum Repository Interrogation plug-in. Enter the following command on the command line "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_08\bin\jar" cvf config.jar dfc.properties log4j.properties. Note that the path to the executable jar.exe may vary on different environments.

Copy the file config.jar created in the previous step to ECLIPSE_HOME\plugins\com.documentum.dfc_1.0.0\config.

Start eclipse with the option -clean. I.e. "eclipse.exe -clean".

This release has not been tested thoroughly. Happy hacking!
