I have a webscript for which i don't want multiple calls at same time. If i get multiple calls at same time, i want to execute the webscript one after the other. Can we do that? If yes please explain the process.

Thanks in advance!

Use the requiresnew in your webscript definition at first. This will make sure that every call is in it's own transaction and you won't get issues with rollingback etc.

In most cases this will solve all the issues you'll have. If not then you're probably fixing the problem at the wrong side and you'll need a queue before Alfresco like ActiveMQ.

  • This solution will not guarantee the execution one after the other. And I think that Alfresco create a new transaction for every Webscript call even if the requiresnew is not set – izodev Jul 13 '16 at 18:19
  • No it doesn't and it's part of 1 big transaction. The only way to insure that is setting it to requiresnew. And if you use ActiveMQ and thus using a queue mechanism you can insure that they are executed after each other. – Tahir Malik Jul 13 '16 at 18:36

You can call a method with the synchronize annotation in the webscript's executeImp
