I'm sitting in this swinky hotel bar on the 15th floor - got a bottle of win on ice, the laptop is all connected up etc. It's so posh I've got an uncontrollable urge to start playing World of Warcraft... wonder what they'd do....

swinky and a bottle of win!

Aren't you the lucky one!!

I'm so bored now, but still need to review another spec before I can go.

I probably won't be that helpful but I can try

There's an idea!

We asked "More detail of how this works is required?"

They said "The EBS will write the metadata into a queue and a path to the file itself. UCM will poll the queue and for each line will run a CHECKIN_NEW service that will create a new item in UCM (the specs for the CHECKIN_NEW are in the documentation). Part of the metadata will be the contentID. At the end of the process the new document will be available in UCM and UCM will notify EBS."

Which doesn't answer the question of how the last bit works

Which is the most important bit

You mean the "UCM will notify EBS" bit?

Maybe it sends an email... which is then parsed by the EBS (whatever that is)... which has its own POP3 client built in... I've worked on stranger "systems"

Exactly that bit.

If I were designing it, it would put a message on an AQ that is propagated between the two systems. EBS then dequeues the message based on the correlation ID, and knows that it has gone full circle.

But I'm not the TA for it, so I await their detailed technical design. Unfortunately for the poor bloke doing it, I'm MUCH more technical than he is in this area, so he's going to get a sound when he does it wrong.

Sometimes, I like being the client

Ah f*** it - I'm off.
