[MKSearch-dev] Week 54 update

[Phil Shaw]

I've updated the Ant distribution targets to issue separate source 
and binary versions of MKSearch. I think I may do a JavaDoc 
distribution too. I need to add licences to these releases and check 
over a few more things, but the working drafts are in Subversion.

https://svn.mkdoc.com/mksearch/dist/mksearch-bin-0.1.zip
https://svn.mkdoc.com/mksearch/dist/mksearch-src-0.1.zip

There's also a WAR that you can drop into your Tomcat webapps 
directory:

How to:

This includes an index of the MKSearch site from a few weeks ago.

I've gone back this week to fill-in some gaps in the unit tests and 
brought coverage up to 88%. I would like to make that 100% for the 
beta release.

Best regards,

Phil


Tuesday 18 October
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

Created unit test suites for ApplicationContextException and 
AbstractApplicationContext with new MockApplicationContext.  

Wednesday 19 October 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  
Created a test suite for QueryResultTag. Required some changes to 
MockPageContext and MockHttpServletResponse. Added a clause to the 
ServletApplicationContext to throw an ApplicationContextException if 
the real path to the store directory cannot be obtained. Various 
changes to standardise and optimise StoreManagerFactory.  

Completed coverage tests for ServletApplicationContext and 
AbstractSchemaProperty with new MockSchemaProperty class.  

Thursday 20 October
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Brought the Ant build scripts up to date and substituted some hard-
coded file paths for environment variables ant.home and tomcat.home. 
Added temporary JSP test build directory and java.home directory to 
local.properties. Created templates for Ant local.filters and 
local.properties files. Debugged the JSP validation build jspc.xml 
and created a bash launch script for it. Updated the mk-ant.sh bash 
script with current classpath.  

Added property variables to the Ant Hansel code coverage build script 
specify the build classpath and an 'excluded' path for mock objects, 
required for testing but not for coverage statistics.  

Renamed the source distribution zip file to distinguish it from a 
separate binary distribution. Added excludes attributes to many of 
the Ant zipfileset elements to prevent unnecessary files being 
included.  


Friday 21 October 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  
Re-instated the AbstractFileStoreManager coverage tests that had been 
disabled some time ago. Required a modification to 
MockFileStoreManager to extend the abstract superclass. Deleted the 
former AbstractStoreWriterPlugin and AbstractLocalStoreWriterPlugin 
classes and their test suites, which have been superseded by the new 
store package implementations. Deleted the redundant AbstractPlugin 
class.  

Completed the unit test for DCElementProperty and extended to 
DCTermProperty and UKeGMSProperty. Simplified the property locale 
constant assignments in each.  

Ameneded all File- and TripleWriter tests to use a new 
MockVirtualFileStoreManager class, since MockFileStoreManager now 
inherits the standard superclass method getOutputStream. This class 
allows tests to request an exception is thrown when this method is 
called.  

Updated Subversion JavaDoc.
