Metacat

Modified redirect URL to navigate to a skin-specific confirmation page, rather than a common one.

Fixed bug that should throw an exception in upload method.

Fixed bug with file updating (lost qformat value). Also fixed bug with message.

Change the debug level for Metacat initialization message.

Converted some java 1.5 code to java 1.4 code. Removed usages of "String.contains()", "Node.getTextContent()" and "Node.setTextContent.

Converted some java 1.5 code to java 1.4 code. Removed usages of "String.contains()", "Node.getTextContent()" and "Node.setTextContent.
Wrote two new methods: 1) getTextContent, and 2) setTextContent, to emulate the org.w3c.dom implementation that ships with java 1.5.

Seperated web API code, from plain java code, by creating seperate constructors and handling Http stuff in just two methods: "clientRequest" and "handleDownloadResponse".
Results in using HttpServlet code in an isolated/thin layer, making it easier to test and reuse all other methods.

Added new functionality for action="Set Access". Includes methods handleChangeAccess, setPublicAccess and getNodeTextStack. Also, cleaned up some code as a result.

Modified string constant "SUB_DOCS_PATH" to be static and public accessible.

Added param to indicate if public has read access or not, in the method "readFromMetacat". It only does this if reading a metadata document, for a skin-format,
and the user is not public. This is useful to the skin's metadata display/editing form, for indicating public accessiblity (or inaccessibility)....

Fixed bug where the Permission Order was always being set to 'allowFirst'.
It was comparing against the constant AccessControlInterface.DENYFIRST with the variable name surrounded by quotes. Removed the quotes and updated comments.

Modified a sql command from "like" to "=". It dramatically improves the peformance of build index.

Grant the public read access to the data files, if it was done for the metadata file. Also cleaned-up some debug statements.

Find out if the document is a Member of an EML package, and if that's not the case, than skip the test to see if access is set through EML metadata.

use "within" rather than "intersects" as the spatial search criteria for dataset location.
(see bugzilla #2972)

Fixed 3 bugs:
1) If there is a call to this class without an "action" (i.e. the initial time the login form is loaded) a null pointer exception would be thrown.
2) If the user logged out, and then tried to query, the server would send an error (invalidated session)...

Created method "private void download(ClientView bean, HttpServletResponse response)", along with several other additions to support downloading.
Includes functionality for FGDC-related package downloads (zip file) and individual data file downloads, with original filenames.

Created new XPath constants for FGDC queries.

Created method "synchronized public InputStream sendParameters(Properties args) throws Exception".
Sends a request to Metacat. An alternative to the sentData method. Allows for sending multiple parameters with the same name, different names, or any combo.

Add debug information.

Add a new method - query which can specify qformat.

Add new query method which can specify qformat.

Modified the "clientDeleteRequest" method to handle meta-file deletes.

Clear the bean's "action" property after most operations are complete, in case user refreshes the browser (it won't repeat). Modified "delete" code, and "handleFileUpdate" method. Added new methods: getStringFromInputStream and makeRedirectUrl.

Added property "metaFileDocId", and constant "UPDATE_MESSAGE", to accomodate update and delete operations.

Fixed a bug the search title in morpho will return everything.

Refactored upload code to allow arbitrary POST parameter ordering, and open the door to multiple files in one HTTP request. Two new methods to MetaCatUtil to facilitate the file processing: writeTempFile and copyFile.

Modifications to the removeDataDocIdFromFGDC method, to use the metadata Doc Id rather than the data file Doc Id, to locate the FGDC node branch to update.

Modifications to the clientRequest method to handle calls for 'Delete' actions.

Fixed bug that if user choose to many documents in spatial query, the result set will be 0.

Uncommented metacat client upload commands.

Changes for java 1.4 compilation, and further development.

Further development.

Add code to handle the docid list is too long to be run in extended query.

Changes to make java 1.4 compliant.

Updated handlePackageUpload (in development).

Added static variables.

Replaced "Formatter" usage (java 1.5) for java 1.4 compiling.

Removed "Formatter" usage, to make java 1.4 compatible.

Removed "Formatter" usage, to make java 1.4 compatible.

Removed "generics" to make java 1.4 compatible.

Change String.contains which only java 1.5 have to String.indexOf

Change a handleReturnField to public which will be used in ecogrid.

Add return doctype and return field into the key of query cache.

Backing out change, certain cases cause the file to upload as 0 bytes, which pass all tests but leave us with no data. Will re-commit after 1.8 release and more complete testing.

Fixed bug that searching for parameters.

Updated com.oreilly.servlet (cos.jar) from 19Jun2001 to current 05Nov2002 version. Fixed uploading in MetaCatServlet.java to allow parameters after file object, was disabled for a workaround in the previous library.

Add a try-catch to handle if a query result is too long.

Removed a code to check if there is a docid in a vector since every docid should exist once.

fixed a bug in metacat that was preventing it from using non-TLS authentication. ldap was throwing a namingException which was causing the exception handling to go to the wrong block so non-tls auth never even got tried. this shoudl hopefully fix the problem with sanparks

Add code to expire cached query result when metacat have a insert, update or delete action.

Add a cache mechanism for public user.

Add a result set cache

Fix a bug that move node from xml_nodes to xml_nodes_revisions.

Change a method to private

Remove offset in findResultDoclist

Add a delay time for initial indexing

Use or to replace union

Add code to handle none-same value query term.

Initial checkin. The "Client View FGDC Helper", to provide FGDC specific methods for client views. This is an API class for the clientview package.

Initial checkin. The "Client View HTML Helper", to provide HTML specific methods for client views. This is an API class for the clientview package.

Initial checkin. The "Client View Bean Helper", to provide a controller for ClientView bean users. This is the main API class for the clientview package.

Initial checkin. The "Client View Bean Info", to complete the JavaBean architecture for the ClientView bean. This class can be used in java component building tools.

Initial checkin. The "Client View Bean", to provide the "model" in the MVC architecture. This JavaBean is used in client view JSP documents (the "Views")
and the ClientViewHelper class (the "Controller").

Refactored almost all of the JSP API methods and fields to a new package (edu.ucsb.nceas.metacat.clientview).

Revised the access query part.

Remove the subtree constrain in access query

Add new variable indicate if this query term in a union group.

Remove an method

Change some log.

Merge the getting return fields for both elements and attributes.

Get rid of back tracing part

Fixed bug: successfully removes related sub Doc ID's from metadata.
New functionality:
1) Updates field in FGDC metadata Doc ID with new version of Doc ID, and
2) Recurses sub-documents for deletion, when deleting an FGDC metadata Doc ID (deletes entire package).

Add debug in query method.

Several newly developed methods providing a JSP API into metacat. Most of the new methods were developed to support FGDC metadata.
Some of the other new methods merely provide convenience to the JSP code. New methods include:
nextVersion, getFGDCdistinfo, addDistInfoToFGDC, vectorToHtmlSelect, mapToHtmlSelect, htmlInput, getSessValue, setSessValue, query, getSelectQueryMap,...

Modified method "doMetadataUpload". Improved file type parsing. Also changed call to "upload", to send Integer.MAX_VALUE as the file size,
since file size is not available until read (i.e. "Content-Length", which is available, isn't the same as the individual file sizes)....

Change a log level. Sometime it confuses people.

Metacat JSP API Additions. The new methods currently only handle inserts of new metadata files and related data files. It also handles instance creation and login support, with
a few convenience methodes intended to be called by a JSP file.
Update and delete support will be added. Also, the new methods currently only handle FGDC metadata files. More XML grammars will be added.

Add more statement to output performance info in a file in delimitere format

Add statement to output search time to a delimitered file

Add a new method to output delimited debug info.

Add formated output for time measurement.

Add new method to record the total search time to a file.

Add new method to write debug info to a given file.

Change the debug level for some statement

Fixed bug that search "soil" will cause an exception.

Change the debug level for timing

Recovered some overwitten code.

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

Changed a wrong debug information.

Fixed bug that search will get a error in adding relationship.

Add time debug information for query.

Modify the time debug message

Fixed bug that if Writer object is null, code will generate null exception

Remove the access query for return field since we remove the partial tree access control in eml.

removed a bunch of commented out code

got a better version of paging working. still needs to be cleaned up and debugged more.

Fix bug that if there is a search value is different to others, the query wouold work.

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....
