Metacat

Fixed problem with metacat handleReadAction where the OutputStream from the
response object was closed and an attempt to reopen a PrintWriter was made
on the same response, which is illegal. Now the OutputStream is converted
to a PrintWriter in order to write the XML error message back to the client....

server property is used in replication thus
it should include the SSL port number

Minor bug fixes following change in style handling. Fixed image locations,
cleaned up main resultset stylesheet.

Added support for multiple user interfaces by enabling style sheet
transformations to be configured from within metacat rather than
from in the database. Now, metacat uses the qformat parameter to determine
a "style set", which is mapped to an xml configuration file that...

Added new filter for style-path

Revised build.xml and metacat.properties to make it easier to
install alternative stylesheets for metacat. In the process,
replaced the deprecated copydir and copyfile commands in build.xml
with appropriate "copy" commands.

Updated build file to resotre changes that were lost when version
1.54 was committed.

changed web-base-url to http://knb.ecoinformatics.org

made ant copy the dtds

Clean up after building distribution.

Updated build.xml with new targets to create metacat distributions.
Run "ant dist" to create a non-source distribution and "ant distsrc"
to create a source distribution. Best if this is run on a clean
checkout to be sure not to include extraneous files that are not in CVS.

Modified Metacat to support large data file uploads. This is accomplished
by supporting a new content type for data sent to metacat:
multipart/form-data
which allows multiple files to be sent in a standard MIME format. The
MetacatServlet.handleGetOrPost() method now checks the incoming content...

fixed error with exception handling in metacat servlet and added new dtds to the sql script

removed descrpency between the gzipped release version of build.xml and the one in cvs

Module cleanup inpreparation for a release.

Updated build files with minor documentation changes.

Modified the license and copyright terms for many of the files. Added
a LICENSE file and a README file in preparation of a distribution.

added the data port param

Re-inserted changes from version 1.38 of build.xml that were accidentally
overwritten when version 1.39 was checked in. Now, building the protocol
handler jar file works again.

added token "install-dir" needed for DTD upload

added an ant substitution for the jdbc connection string (fixed typo)b

added an ant substitution for the jdbc connection string

added ant substitution for server and replication-log

Modified the build.xml file to support the new protocol handler classes,
which need to be built in a separate jar file bust it must be installed
as part of the tomcat servlet environment, not the web application. Now a
command of "ant protocol" will create the protocol.jar file, which must be...

fixed typo that was accidentally committed.

removed server-code param

added server-code property

added replication properties

Changed target of the javadoc builds to the build/docs/apiDocs directory
so that we no loger version track the javadoc html files -- they changes
too much between each of the times we would generate them. Also, removed
the old javadoc documentation that was found in the "docs" subdirectory.

Modified stylesheets to use the default.css file from the new KNB web site.
Also, provided a new resultset.xsl that represents a simple freetext query
of the KNB data repository. Updated build.xml to relect the location of the
new css stylesheet.

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...

minor config file update

no message

changed marine line

changed build documentation

added MARINE installation instructions

minor efficiency improvement

removed catalog jar file because not needed because source code is in src dir so is included as part of metacat.jar

updated ant build.xml file for efficiency

updated build file jar references

Added srbrmi classes for authentication support

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....

moved shell scripts to bin dir, config files to lib dir

added Ant build system support
