Metacat is a flexible database storage system for XML formatted |
22 | 22 |
documents. Metacat models the structure of the XML document, therefore |
23 |
allowing storage of XML documents with arbitrary schemas. The current
|
|
24 |
implementation stores data in a backend Oracle RDBMS, but was designed
|
|
25 |
to support other RDBMS systems as well. The server supports XML document
|
|

allowing storage of XML documents with arbitrary schemas. Metacat supports
|
|
24 |
several databases on the back-end, including Oracle, PostgeSQL and SQL Server.

The server supports XML document |
|
26 | 26 |
storage, retrievel, query, validation, and transformation (using the XSLT |
27 | 27 |
stylesheet language). In addition, there is a mechanism for replicating |
28 | 28 |
the database to other metacat instances for backup and load balancing |

1) Added functionality to export a zipped data package. The zip file contains |
36 | 36 |
all of the data and metadata as well as a rendered html summary of |

2) Changed version control mechanism. Metacat can now accept any version of
|
|
39 | 39 |
a document as long as the given version number is greater than the |

current one. The new version number does not have to be exactly one |
41 | 41 |

1) Fixed problem that if the user exists in one of the referred trees in ldap
|
|
45 |
server, now authentication will not succeed when the password is
|
|

2) Changed the default behavior of the access control functionality
|
|
48 |
If a member document of data package doesn't have an access control list,

|
|
47 |
respect to packaging.
|
|

If a member document in a data package doesn't have an access control list,
|
|
49 | 49 |
access control rules of the main package document will not apply to the |
50 |
member document. |
|

|
51 |
the access control rules of the main package document. |
