When to use JCRUtility vs. ResourceResolverFactory for ResourceResolver

[anthonyk3390753]

Hi,

We are writing a Listener to handle the Publish event, we see that we can use JCRUtility.getResourceResolver() or use resourceResolverFactory.getResourceResolver(paramMap).

How do we decide under what scenarios one is better or appropriate than the other.

Thanks.

The best way to work with the JCR is to create a system user and then use this code to get a Session:

resourceResolverFactory.getResourceResolver(paramMap)
