Just a quick note from the depths of night...
We have most of the configuration ui up and running. We are trying to get DataStore setup perfected before taking on the more complicated FeatureType/AttributeType screen. David has kindly figured out how to parse the min/max occurs out of the schema.xml fragments and providing more work for us on the ui front.
Expected time line:
Monday: merge back onto head & complete FeatureType config
Tuesday: bug stomp/test
Wednesday: an alpha release (even if it is just a zip file)
David I am trying to inflict the GeoTools Catalog API onto GeoServer:
- Data implement Catalog (done!)
- NameSpaceInfo implement NamespaceMetaData
- DataStoreInfo implement DataStoreMetaData
- FeatureTypeInfo implement FeatureTypeMetaData / provide access to AttributeTypeMetaData
The MetaData classes are in the data module of geotools2, the geotools.jar in lib has been updated on the config branch.
After that is done if you could kindly begin the merge.
I am sure Richard and I will have some questions about AttributeTypeConfig when we get in. We could not quite understand your comments. Near as I can tell I have to throw out one of your three cases. I need a "name" to drive the UI, and I cannot hunt down the correct name in a random namespace.
I am hoping we can stay on the head after the merge, it will be more timely for bug fixes and we will be working on the validation framework which is not part of the core GeoServer functionality.
Cheers,
Jody
