Metacat

Add release info property to provide a brief description of the release (release candidate info mostly)

Add lter test accounts

Convert properties to camel case

add ability to access protected data via the datamanager/dataquery feature.
Note: the datamanager features rely on the ecogrid stubs being available in Metacat. When Metacat is installed with ecogrid enabled, the required jars are included in the war...something to keep in mind.

Changes to remove ANT tokens for the turnkey install project

use cgi-prefix from build properties to configure the default skin for login.
removed hardcoded "ldap.ecoinformatics.org" reference in the jsp and reads it from the metacat.properties file.

Note: still uses ant token from the build.properties file, but at least centralizes the spot where the token needs to be dealt with.

Change version to 1.8.0

added skin names to properties list for working with citations that include registry name, registry url

include doctype of metadata for FGDC spatial harvesting.

Reset the spatial option to be true as default the value.

Add two porperties which control to write debug info to a file rather than log.

updated the kepler skin to use paging. need to do a bit more work on this to make it behave more like other web applications

Added a new class called Sitemap that is used to generate a series of XML documents representing the URLs of metacat documents following the sitemap protocol. The Sitemap class extends TimerTask so that it can be scheduled to run once a day or so. New configuration options were added to metacat.properties to control where the sitemaps are written and hw often they are updated. By default we do it once a day, as more often is overkill for search engines....

As part of a fix for http://bugzilla.ecoinformatics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2747,
I'm adding a few configuration parameters to metacat.properties:

1) ldapconnecttimelimit limits the time in milliseconds allowed for
LDAP server connections. This reduces the impact of any single...

Added preliminary support for multiple spatial schemas in the same metacat instance .. bug 2551

Added changelog for 1.7.0 to readme file. Updated version number in properties.

Changing initial configured status back to false

Set configured to false initially. Include notification in configure process that geoserver password needs to be changed plus instructions on how to do so

Began work on a web interface for configuring metacat at runtime. This system
checks the 'configured' property when metacat starts up. If configured=false, then
it loads an HTML form containing the properties that need to be set. The user configures the properties and they are written into the metacat.properties file. Then metacat needs to be restarted. ...

Eliminated the 'release' ant tag from the rest of the files. The 'release' property is still used in build.xml for creating releases, but the filter is no longer presnt. Now, when updating the metacat files for a release, you have to set the release version in both the build.xml and the metacat.properties files.

read the schema-specific doc title from metacat properties

initial import of changes to metacat source and config files to support spatial option

Added variables to specify whether only secure ldap connections should be allowed for aunthentication.

Added param which specifies config files of which skins to read

moving indexPaths from metacat.properties to build.properties

Added packageId to the paths to be indexed

Add new index value for distribution url.

Added parameter to specify how long the indexing Thread should wait for the docid to show up in xml_documents

new variables defined for the indexing threads.

Added three new options for specifying the moderators, allowed submitters and submitters who are not allowed

add new timed replication setting properties.

Added literalLayout, para and geographic Description to the list of paths to be indexed

Added new paths to be indexed to metacat.properties

Added a new property 'indexed_paths'. All the paths mentioned under this property will be configured in xml_path_index table.
See bug 2154

Updated properties to use release from the build.xml file.

Updated version in the metacat properties to 1.5.0rc1.

Changed default maxHarvests value to 0. Added logic to ignore maxHarvests value when it is set to 0 or a negative number. This allows Harvester to run indefinitely without shutting down after reaching a maximum number of harvests. The previous default value of 30 would cause Harvester to terminate after 30 harvests.

Added code such that an offset can be specified in metacat.properties for entering records into xml_queryresult table. The value of xml_returnfield.usage_count should be more than the value specified in metacat.properties for records to be entered into xml_queryresult. so if you want results for any combination of returnfields should be stored in xml_queryresult only after that combination has been requested 50 times, set this value to 50

Added new parameters to control the size of resultset for browsers and application like morpho. Also a parameter to specify the length of xml_queryresult.queryresult_string

New README in preparation for the 1.4.0 release, and updated the properties
file with the new version number.

Added a property listing servlet administrators.

Changed properties to use the xml_index table by default.

Changes directory names and paths of eml checkouts. Added eml-2.0.1 to the eml versions to be checked out.

Added params for EML2_0_0 and EML2_1_0

Add Harvester properties

Add new option for return set size.

Added a simple action for finding out the current metacat version. The information is pulled from the property file, so be sure to update the version in the property file before shipping a release.

Changed printAttributeQuery() to no longer depend on the xml_index table. Now, if useXMLIndex is false, the method will use a recursive query on xml_nodes to match paths instead of using xml_index.

Enabled stylesheet parameters to be passed through metacat even when the
'query' function is called. Previously, query would interpret all
parameters except a few hardcoded ones to be pathexpressions that should be
built into a squery. Now, metacat.properties contains a new configuration...

Moved the metacat.properties file from the jar file to now be located in
the tomcat context directory in WEB-INF. Now the metacat configuration is
editable in place. This change depends on a new Options.java class in the
utilities module, so be sure you do a "clean" build in metacat so that you...

Add a variable for data file size limit.

Add a variable for replication error log file.

Get eml2namespace from token
