Metacat

Various changes to improve consistency of the MARINE and METACAT user
interfaces as presented through the XSL->HTML conversions. Eliminated
one (extraneous) copy of the rowcol.css style sheet in favor of sharing
a single css stylesheet in xmltodb/lib/style/rowcol.css. Modified all...

- cleared copyfile of marine.properties since it is no longer in use
- added copyfile of srbProps.properties from xmltodb/lib to the servlet classpath
same like metacat.properties

fixed typ-o

update of build.xml based on Matt's recommendations

added an image-path property to get around the messed up images when loading images from tomcat. To add your own image directory,
create a directory under /opt/httpd/html/img/ and add the path to the image-path property in build.xml. Then all img tags in your documents...

Added install feature for copying dtd's to the servlet directory so that
they are accessible to the metacatservlet.

Changed release to version to alpha 8 (1.0a8) and tagged metacat in
CVS as METACAT_ALPHA_8

changed release version

Modified binaries to change classpath for metacat.jar under new
build process.

removed unneeded replace command

Added user and password to build.xml for filter substitution.

sorry, I needed new property "html-path" with value "/xmltodb" for me.
Chad, for you should be I think "/berkley"

Set a filter for installdir property

set filtering="yes" attribute on the copy command of metacat.properties

Fixed build.xml bug -- jar file was included recursively in itself, causing
ever-growing size of jar on install. Changed location of jar file that is
built (from build.dest to build.dir) to fix the problem.

Updated build process to now use a copy of the source files so that keyword
substitution can ocur before the build. This allows for substitution of
hardcoded values into the source before the compile. Currently, I am
using this feature to do the following:...

-Reorganized xmltodb module to support new install process for the new
linux server (dev.nceas.ucsb.edu). Added "build.sh" shell script that
calls ant withthe proper umask set for installation. Use:

./build.sh install

to post a new copy of the servlet and its supporting files to the install...

Fixed bugs associated with the new UPDATE and DELETE functions of
DBWriter. There were problematic interactions between some static
variables used in DBEntityResolver and the way in which the
Servlet objects are re-used across multiple client invocations....

1) Simplified database connection creation by adding new utility routine in MetaCatUtil that reads configuration information from the properties file.
2) Created MetaCatUtil.getOption() to retrieve options from properties file.
3) Unified SAX Parser creation by specifying parser driver in the properties file and dynamically loading it using the XMLReaderFactory interface....
