Metacat

use detected XML encoding when reading/writing files
use UTF-8 as default when performing queries in the DB (assume DB is using UTF-8)
remove as many PrintWriters (uses system default character encoding only) as possible and construct OutputStreamWriters where explicit encoding can be given....

add method name to log statements

Fix spelling in debug statement

Change location of PropertyService to properties directory

Move document specific utilities to DocumentUtil from MetacatUtil. This makes it easier to define a layer between the core metacat services and the rest of the code.

Renamed MetaCatUtil to MetacatUtil

remove skin.configs directory.
migrate those properties to the style/skins/* properties files
do not load them during Metacat init.

Merge 1.9 changes into Head

Merge METACAT_1_8_1 to cvs head.

Changes to remove ANT tokens for the turnkey install project

add debug statements so it's clear what transformer parameters are being passed

include contextURL and cgi-prefix as parameters in all the transforms (initially used for nceas skin to remove ant tokens in the XSL files....but will be used by other skins as they are converted away from at tokens)

Add server url to system id.

Modification for changes to the field "MetacatUtil.skinconfigs" (bug 3057 fix).
Also changes reading skin.configs properties/files (bug 3058 fix).

Removed the release ant token from all files in 'src'.

Integration of the metacat servlet with the spatial option -- rubberbanding is implemented too.

Added checks for null pointers and changed the name of the config file

Using java.util.Property instead of Options. Options is a singleton class. Hence it cant be used for reading skin property files without changing it into a non-singleton class

Making changes for passing the params to the xsl for skins.

Changes in log levels of some commands mentioned in the previos commit.

Replacing MetaCatUtil.debugMessage or MetaCatUtil.logMetacat call with logMetacat (private Logger object) call

Add a new transform method.

This is the merge from the branch WEB_UI_REDESIGN_BRANCH back into the head.
The only files that have been removed are those in lib/style/eml2; other files
that have been cvs removed (only from lib/ and lib/style) have been re-added
elsewhere (i.e. moved from one directory to another)....

Get rid of doctype declare in transfer.

Set system id for transforming.

fixed errors with jing and my merges

changes to make session management between monarch and metacat work.

Revise code and make it more generic to pass parameters to style sheet.

Add the code to handle parameter for style sheet.

Change the debugMessage prototype.

Add some debug message.

Merge DBConnection branch to head.

In method transformXMLDocument, if no style sheet registered was found for the input document, the document will be send back, rather than use util.DebugMessge to print.

A method named transformXmlDocument were overload. It transform an XML document to StringWriter using the stylesheet reference from the db.

Set the qformat parameter so the stylesheets can use it for conditional
processing.

updated metacat so that the xmlparserv2.jar file is no longer needed. replaced all of teh oracle xml processing with xalan and xerces.

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...

seems that there are problem in JDBC-ODBC bridge used with SQL Server
when using sql statements like:
SELECT ...
WHERE LIKE ? ...
changed to:
SELECT ...
WHERE = ? ...
and now it works

added precise location information (class.method) to each catch statement so that errors are more easily traced.

Added license terms to source code files, and cleaned up some javadoc
documentation in a few places.

Added "release" keyword to all metacat source files so that the release
number will be evident in software distributions.

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.

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

documentation cleanup

Modifying storage model to use DOM TEXT nodes -- update is incomplete and query code doesn not work for this checkin

fixing transform bugs
