Series title: Directory Services Markup Language Server The Directory Services


Series title: Directory Services Markup Language Server
The Directory Services Markup Language v1.0 (DSMLv1) provides a means for representing directory structural information as an XML document.DSMLv2 goes further, providing a method for expressing directory queries and updates and the results of these operations as XML documents. These XML files can be transported over HTTP to and from a server that interprets and generates them. Thus DSML satisfies the requirements of bridging the LDAP technology with devices and technologies that uses the internet standards. The paper deals with design and implementation of generic gateway server API's (i.e the DSML server), which would be helpful for accessing any directory server using the internet standards.

Bidirectional script support Arabic, Hebrew, Urdu, and Farsi (Persian) are


Bidirectional script support
Arabic, Hebrew, Urdu, and Farsi (Persian) are written from right to left, while numbers and segments of Latin (or Cyrillic or Greek) text are embedded in this text from left to right. The dual directionality aspects of such bidirectional (bidi) text are posing challenges to the way this text is processed and presented in computer applications. This article provides an initial introduction to the concepts and peculiarities of bidirectional scripts in computing systems, which forms a basis for understanding how those scripts are implemented in specific systems. It covers directionality and Arabic character shaping, the prevalence of bidi text in different bidi layouts, the definition of the bidi attributes, and the need to transform bidi text to a common layout before processing it.

Automate your team's build and unit-testing process
Extreme programming and agile methods recommend that the development process include continuous integration and unit testing. A pragmatic way to support these practices is to set up an automated system to build and test the latest version of your source code every time it changes. This article guides you through the practical issues involved in setting up your own Linux-based build server for Java projects.

Use Apache Sandesha to support Web services implementation
Get an overview of Apache Sandesha and its architecture. Apache Sandesha is an implementation of WS-ReliableMessaging protocol on top of Apache Axis -- the next generation SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) -- that provides extensive support for Web services. As the software industry moves towards Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) promoting the connectivity of many heterogeneous systems to provide enterprise solutions, Web services will play a major role in this movement, and the base for this connectivity will mainly lie on the messages that they interchange.

Subject classification with DITA and SKOS Use a DITA specialization


Subject classification with DITA and SKOS
Use a DITA specialization to manage the subject matter of your document content -- that is, identify and process your content based on what each topic is about. With the approach outlined in this article, you can take advantage of the technologies of the Semantic Web for improved search, integration, and other processing. Instead of starting from scratch, however, you can build on standard topic-oriented strategies for authoring and processing content.

Build a Derby calendar, Part 1: Understanding JDBC
Build a calendar and reminder application using the Java language and the Apache Derby database in Part 1 of this three-part tutorial series. This tutorial starts by showing you how to install the database and exploring interactions with it through Java Database Connectivity (JDBC). Parts 2 and 3 will examine different options for including Derby in your application and Derby's transactional capabilities as we move from a single-user to a multiuser system. Finally, we'll move to a multimode system that includes a Web interface.

MySQL 5.0

MySQL AP the group that handles development of the MySQL database is looking to release a major milestone in this software package's history. Things to look for in this release


  • Triggers
  • Views
  • Stored procedures.

Stored Procedures for Enterprise Applications
MySQL 5.0 adds support for stored procedures, which can facilitate the adoption of MySQL for existing legacy database applications. Stored procedures are SQL (Structured Query Language) statements that are stored in the database in compiled form so that they can be accessed in a standard way across multiple applications. MySQL stored procedures are based on SQL:2003, a common standard for syntax, data structures, and retrieval processes of SQL databases. In addition to better accessibility, stored procedures can improve data integrity and developer productivity.

The stored procedures functionality in MySQL 5.0 also integrates server side cursor support. MySQL cursor support inside stored procedures and functions is now only limited by available memory, which further improves scalability.

MySQL 5.0 also includes new functionality to enhance portability and migration, internationalization and general usability.

“"We are pleased to make version 5.0 available to the community, as it addresses strong user demand for stored procedures",” stated Michael (Monty) Widenius, MySQL AB co-founder and CTO. "While it is designed to support more enterprise applications, 5.0 retains the MySQL hallmarks of high performance and stability, so it continues to be ideal for Web sites, packaged applications and other database deployments.”"
