Revision history for "cql-java"
See the bottom of this file for a list of things still to do.
-0.3 (IN PROGRESS)
+0.4 (IN PROGRESS)
+ - Add support for the new "phonetic" relation modifier,
+ including its mapping in "etc/pqf.properties".
+ - Make prefix-maps bind loosely, so that ``>dc=x a and b''
+ applies the dc=x binding to both the ``a'' and ``b''
+ sub-queries.
+ - Change build process so that javadoc documentation is built
+ by "make" in the "docs" directory.
+ - Write javadoc comments for CQLRelation and ModifierSet.
+ - Other improvements to javadoc comments (e.g. describe the
+ `config' parameter to the toPQF() method.)
+ - Include test/regression/xmlpp.pl in the distribution: will
+ be used for testing whether a CQL compiler produces
+ _equivalent_ XCQL to the what's in the regression test,
+ rather than requiring byte-identical output.
+ - Sort out the licence: I've settled on the LGPL.

+0.3 Fri Nov 15 12:04:04 2002
- Allow keywords to be used unquoted as search terms.
- Add support for serverChoiceRelation (scr).
- Add support for prefix-mapping, as in
>dc="http://dublincore.org/ dc.title=fish
and
>"http://dublincore.org/ title=fish
- ### But the XCQL output may need to be changed depending on
- the result of the ZNG list's deliberations.
+ The XCQL generated corresponds to Adam's suggested format
+ rather than Rob's, not so much because I prefer it (although
+ I do) as because it's what fell out when I just Coded What
+ Comes Natur'ly. That may need to change, depending on the
+ result of the ZNG list's deliberations.
- Fix the parser to normalise relation modifiers to lower case.
- Fix the CQLParser test harness not to emit an extraneous
blank line at end of XCQL output.
- Fix the bug where "9x" is parsed as two tokens, a TT_NUMBER
followed by a TT_WORD. The problem here is that I don't
think it's actually possible to fix this without throwing
- out StreakTokenizer and rolling our own, which we absolutely
+ out StreamTokenizer and rolling our own, which we absolutely
_don't_ want to do.
- - Write javadoc comments for CQLRelation and ModifierSet.
+ - Find out what the ZNG group finally settled on as the
+ correct XCQL representation of prefix-mapping, and tweak my
+ toXCQL() output to match that.
+ - Add srw.resultSet support to the toPFQ() method.
- Write "overview" file for the javadoc documentation.
- Some niceties for the cql-decompiling back-end:
* Don't emit redundant parentheses.
