Metacat

created locking action in replication servlet and added semi-support to documentImpl to handle documents updatedee by replicatio

Modified stylesheets and server code to use a single "read" action instead
of the earlier "getdocument" and "getrelateddocument" actions. In the
process, developed and started to utilize a new suite of URL "protocol
handlers" that are in the package "edu.ucsb.nceas.protocols" and handle...

Fixed typo in create table syntax (added missing comma) for xml_access table.

Added a new URL protocol handler class for the metacat protocol. This
class will replace the current MetacatURL class in a much simpler and
extensible manner. See the documentation for java.net.URLConnection and
java.net.URL for details.

this class allows the parsing of xml data sent by a replication server to assertain document info about a remote document.

added functionality to allow the replication servlet to assertain and insert user and group info into the local database. started implementation of insert replication handler (it is commented out in this commit)

CREATE TABLE xml_access (
docid VARCHAR2, -- the document id #
principal_name VARCHAR2, -- name of user, group, etc.
permission NUMBER, -- "read", "write", "all"
perm_type VARCHAR2, -- "allowed" or "denied"
perm_order VARCHAR2 -- "allow first" or "deny first"...

fixed compatibility problem by overloading the write method. Jivka's new parameter (Reader acl) is now defaulted to null if it is not explicitly declared.

added interface to handle a new "acl" parameter bringing the text of a xml access file for a given metadata document
the "acl" parameter is optional and should be sent on INSERT or UPDATE action.

added ticket_counter and deny attributes to xml_access table
