Metacat

Replaced imagemap with anchor links in the web interface to simplify the
rearrangement of the interface. This new feature uses javascript to
submit the form when the link is clicked.

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...

Changed "xmltodb" to "html-path/style" so that the resultset.xsl
stylesheet could be found in various servlet contexts.

Repository reorganization, and some file cleanup to make the XSL and CSS
files portable to various installations of metacat (by using the
build.xml file substitution in the XSL files). Removed "xsqltest" directory
because it is no longer needed. Created new "style" directory inside of...

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"

New "servletpath" and "installdir" properties

Updated build process to now use a copy of the source files so that keyword

hardcoded values into the source before the compile. Currently, I am

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....

Merged in substantial changes to DBWriter and associated classes and to
the MetaCatServlet in order to accomodate the new UPDATE and DELETE
functions. The command line tools and the parameters for the
servlet have changed substantially.

Fixed bug in DBWriter using the new SAX2 interface. Turned out it was a bug in xerces-1_1_1, which was fixed by Andy Clark after I reported it.

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....

cleaned up code for getting options from the properties file, made the database connection inthe MetaCatUtil class use the properties file for the conneciton info

integrated new structured query facility (DBQuery) into the servlet demo (MetaCatServlet)

fixed QuerySpecification to produce SQL that does UNION or INTERSECT set operations for query group combinations

modified shell scripts to support new parser locations and syntax changes

minor modifications to fix problems introduced with AccessionNumber module

2 new properties added:
defaultGlobalName=NCEAS
accNumberSeparator=:

fixed error in pathquery.dtd

added result-set filter to DBSimpleQuery to only return specified document type

added query language dtd and example file

rewrote DBSimpleQuery and associated classes to no longer use Oracle's hierarchichal query syntax -- now this should work with any JDBC compliant backend DB
