This package provides interfaces and classes for accessing CMIS repositories via an object oriented API.
Interfaces in this package are implemented by the OpenCMIS runtime and must not be implemented by applications. The OpenCMIS client API depends on the OpenCMIS commons API.

To use the OpenCMIS client API, a client needs to get a reference to the entry interface {@link org.apache.chemistry.opencmis.client.api.SessionFactory} and then connect to the CMIS repository by obtaining a session to the repository from the {@code SessionFactory}. The way to get a {@code SessionFactory} instance depends on the clients runtime: Usually this will be done via JNDI lookup in a J2EE runtime or a service lookup in a OSGi Runtime.

All operations that require a round-trip to the back-end will do that synchronously, causing the client to be blocked during that call.

Usage of the API
