import of new openisis release, 0.9.9e

1 dpavlin 604 Available for download:
2    
3    
4     * 0.9.9e
5    
6     Contains collation (ordering) support (including Unicode) as described in
7     > CharSet character sets.
8     Also a couple of bugs have been fixed.
9     Both the basic and unicode PHP demos have been successfully tested
10     against malete server on both Win95 and XP.
11    
12     NOTE: Be sure to read and understand "using collation" in
13     > CharSet character sets
14     before playing around with it.
15    
16     NOTE: The preliminary Latin-1 character mapping is gone with this release.
17     If there is no collation info, data is indexed without any changes!
18    
19    
20     This is the last "feature release" (Nov. 12th 04).
21     No more new features are planned for 1.0, only testing and bugfixing.
22     May also be considered "release candidate 0".

35    
36     The 0.9.9.c
37     > /tar/malete.0.9.9c.tgz sources
38     (~ 180 KB) adds
39     > Protocol a terms method
40     ,
41     > IIF IIF/ISO2709 import/export
42     and some
43     > CmdLine documentation
44     . Also available as
45     > /tar/malete099c.zip windows binary
46     or statically linked linux binary (diet)
47     > /tar/malete.0.9.9c.gz standard
48     or for
49     > /tar/malete.0.9.9c-cdsunix.gz "UNIX" format CDS/ISIS
50     (each about 47 KB compressed, 86 uncompressed).
51    
52     The windoews binary is known to have a couple of
53     problems on XP, which is pretty incompatible with 98.
54     I will try to fix that once somebody donates me a XP box.
55    
56    
57     * 0.9.9b
58    
59     The
60     > /tar/malete.0.9.9b.tgz preview release
61     adds import and export from/to traditional
62     > CDS
63     /ISIS file formats, both record and index data.
64    
65    
66     * 0.9.9a
67    
68     Finally we have something like a
69     > /tar/malete.0.9.9a.tgz testing preview
70     of OpenIsis 1.0
71    
72    
73     It comes complete with a server (which even runs on windows!)
74     and a pure PHP library supporting read, write, query and index.
75     There also is a cds test database, consisting of two text files:
76     The mrd (record data) is used as is, and the mqt (query text) is loaded
77     into a mqd (query data as platform independent B-Tree leaves).
78    
79    
80     Testing so far was not all too thorough, however,
81     all basic requests as used in demo.php
82     work as described in
83     > Protocol
84     (TIP: set $db->srv->dbg to true to see the protocol).
85     The protocol is so ridiculously simple that it can
86     be implemented in any language easily.
87    
88    
89     To be more explicit:
90     both major interfaces of any future OpenIsis release,
91     that is the file formats and the network protocol,
92     are FIXED in that what is working as documented now
93     will continue to work the same way in any future release.
94     ("Will" meaning "should", else it's a bug).
95    
96    
97     Main missing issues to 1.0:
98     - file converter from and to WinISIS/DOS ISIS (done in 0.9.9b)
99     - a TERMS method (done in 0.9.9c)
100     - other languages
101     - implementation of filtering as described in
102     > Query
103    
104     The first two are not a big problem and can be expected soon.
