Method and system for morphing object types in enterprise content management systems

摘要

Morphing object types in enterprise content management systems is described. A text properties file is created that maps properties associated with an object type to properties associated with a new object type. A database associated with an enterprise content management system is queried to retrieve objects based on the object type. The objects are stored in a staging database. The objects are deleted from the database. Property tables are created in the database based on the new object type. The objects are migrated from the staging database to the newly created property tables based on the text properties file.
