[Dspace-tech] Little detail in the language selector
Hi all! I´m a novice user of DSpace. I´m just tasting the tool but it seems great ! By now it´s all quite clear for me, buy i have a little uestion about the language selector tag in the DSpace home page. In our case, we will need to use DSpace in 3 diffrent languages: Spanish, English and Bask. I already activated them by rewriting this clue in dspace.cfg webui.supported.locales = es,eu,en. When i recompile (light recompile :D) the tool i can see the 3 languages as selectable, written this way: español vascuence ingles . Here my question; does anyboday now where can i change this literals from that to: Castellano Euskera Ingles ? I hope so!

Re: [Dspace-tech] Little detail in the language selector
Hi Fran, I was also trying to find out what could be the solution but I didn't find anything. As a fast solution but quite dirty I would suggest you to enter in /home.jsp/, and search the following line %= supportedLocales[i].getDisplayLanguage(supportedLocales[i])% you can check whether the result is Vascuence, then show Euskera. That is my firts idea, but I guess somewhere is written Vascuence... saludos Felipe Fran Mosteiro escribió: Hi all! I´m a novice user of DSpace. I´m just tasting the tool but it seems great !

Re: [Dspace-tech] Little detail in the language selector
Hi Fran,
you might change this in
webbapp/home.jsp
for (int i = supportedLocales.length-1; i = 0; i--)
{
%
a class =langChangeOn
onclick=javascript:document.repost.locale.value='%=supportedLocales[i].toString()%';
document.repost.submit();
%=
supportedLocales[i].getDisplayLanguage(supportedLocales[i])%
/a nbsp;
%
see http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/Locale.html
for the possibilities.
If you want labelling which is not provided by Locale you can add your
own to the Messages.properties e.g.
jsp.home.language-selection.es = Castellano
and use the fmt tag instead of the getDisplayLanguage method.
Hope that helps
Claudia Jürgen

I did not see the traditional breadcums that show the hierarchy though. You have opted for saying 'broader' or 'narrower' classification. Yes, because LC subject headings doesn't represent a traditional hierarchy, but more of a conceptual network. That is, there's more than one broader term in use for many terms, so there's no canonical hierarchy to hang bread crumbs off of (unlike DDC, LC call numbers, or UDC). This is very interesting. I have been talking to one of our business analysts and she says that modern computer-based subject classifications need not be hierachy based as DDC is. But the screen mockups of the new system still show breadcrumbs during subject navigation. She was involved in the creation of these mockups. I think she knows what she is talking about so I think this shows that actual implementations of conceptual networks are very thin on the ground. The mockups are probably showing breadcrumbs because we are so used to systems like DDC, but she is aware we could, and probably should, do better. To see a clearer example of the complexity involved, look at Information storage and retrieval systems, which I have a subject map for at http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/book/browse?type=lcsubckey=Informationstorage and retrieval systems Here, notice that there are multiple broader, narrower, and related terms; no single thing above it in a breadcrumb hierarchy. (Instead, you can go up whichever route you choose.) This is fantastic. I want it! Is your system based on DSpace? You mentioned having to do some non-trivial programming. If your system is DSpace-based will you be able to contribute the code back to DSpace? It's not DSpace based. It's currently a Perl library drawing on some somewhat out of date metadata for the LC subject headings taxonomy local to Penn. Hmm. Whilst your link shows some great categorization, stuff local to Penn might be a problem when it comes to international systems (I am in the UK). I'm considering porting the subject mapping library to Java, though, for some other developments, which could in theory make it usable by Dspace if interest warrants. (Or if anyone else wants to work on this, I can point folks to downloadable XML versions of the LC subject headings conceptual network.) John I hope other people will be interested in this too. I think it would be a fantastic addition to DSpace. In fact I think it would be good to add even with the Penn local stuff present. After all, the controlled vocabularies that come as standard are particular to certain locales, e.g the Swedish Research Subject Categories. I am not sure it is possible to come up with a subject categorization that is locale neutral. This reminds me of some work I did in the financial sector where we had to classify certain equity time series are belonging to certain industries. I found that the industry classifications are very locale specific. For example, in Italy there is a dedicated industry classification for terracotta! So maybe the only thing we can do is add locale-specific controlled vocabularies then let the administrator/configurator choose the closest from the ones available. -- Regards, Andrew M. -- ___ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech
Re: [Dspace-tech] collection logo with a link
Hi, I posted some time ago about a feature that I'm needing. I have to make the collection logo to be a thumbnail with a link to a bigger version of itself. For this I've been considering several aproaches. I'm not sure about hardcoding SQL into de jsp pages, because there could be issues with the internal way in with files are stored... So I was thinking about duplicating what's done in the file upload-logo.jsp I've been studying it and I don't know how it works, because in the part where the file is uploaded, in the form, input type=file, the action part is blank (actually is ) So, where does the file go? How can I do something similar? Any help with all this will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Mensaje escrito por: Martin Musacchio mmusacc...@unl.edu.ar: Hi, This is the second time I post about this. I need the collection logo to have a link to a big size version of it. This means that the big logo has to be an item too (I suppose) so it can be stored in the database along with the rest of the items. But I have to keep from displaying it when showing the items of the collection... Maybe it can be stored in the database manually through SQL in a new field created for that purpose. But I wouldn'k know how to call it from the jsp... I feel I'm close, but not quite there. Has anyone done something similar to this? Any ideas?

[Dspace-tech] java.lang.OutOfMemory with large number of communities
Hello, I am finding that I get java.lang.OutOfMemory errors when I have a large number of communities created. I have around 1500. With the exception of one test community they are all empty at the moment but going to the home page where the list gets displayed and it frequently invokes the out of memory error. It is only running on a weedy laptop with around 1GB of memory. What is the best way to up the limit please? Do I have to use a CATALINA_OPTS approach? Or is there some DSpace config directive I can use? -- Regards, Andrew M. -- ___ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech

Andrew Marlow wrote: This is fantastic. I want it! Thanks. I'll note the support when I propose working more on it next year... :-) Hmm. Whilst your link shows some great categorization, stuff local to Penn might be a problem when it comes to international systems (I am in the UK). Let me clarify: the classification system is *not* local to Penn; it's the Library of Congress subject headings (LCSH) ontology. (Which is a bit US-centric, but not so much that it would seem very odd in the UK, I'd think.) The local to Penn bit simply refers to the *data* I used, which was a copy of the LCSH ontology made and adpated by Penn some years back, so it's somewhat out of date and doesn't completely match current LCSH. The LCSH subject headings structure can be searched from http://authorities.loc.gov/ and I was going to also direct folks towards a wonderful downloadable SKOS version at http://lcsh.info/ but the LC staffer unfortunately has just had to take it down a few days ago at his employer's request. Annoyingly, I had not yet saved a local copy. (Did anyone else? Please write if you have; I'd love to get a copy.) At the moment, the best available free alternative appears to be a copy of the subject authority records (in MARC XML, not SKOS) scraped off the authorities site a couple of years ago, which you can find at http://www.ibiblio.org/fred2.0/authorities/ Note that the LC might claim copyright in these records outside the US; I'm not sure about this. (Inside the US, they can't claim copyright to their own work, since they're a federal government agency.) *** By the way, if anyone's still interested in a using Dewey decimal-like system, but finds the 1876 version cited earlier too creaky, there's a later revision from 1922 (the 11th edition) now digitized at Google. I've recently added a listing for it at http://onlinebooks.library.upenn.edu/webbin/book//lookupid?key=olbp44744 (Non-US users might need to use the archive.org link I provide there instead of the Google link, but it's public domain just about everywhere, since Dewey died more than 70 years ago and the 1922 copyright has also expired in the US.) It looks like the 12th edition, from 1927, is also public domain due to non-renewal, but I don't know of an online copy of that one. (The 13th edition, from 1932, is posthumous, and its copyright was renewed.) If you were using it in a repository today, you'd need to update it to include things that Dewey somehow failed to notice in 1922, like computers, and you'd probably also want to undo the reformed spellings that Dewey was keen on at the time. You may also want to be aware that some topics in use then have been moved around in the current Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC, 22nd edition). Subjects like telegraphs and canal engineering somehow now don't seem to warrant taking up as much of the numeric space as they used to. As Ralph LeVan points out, OCLC claims copyright on the text associated with the numbers. So you can't just copy the current DDC guide without getting permission and agreeing to a license. But I don't know of anything stopping you from looking through local library stacks to come up with your *own* description for what the library is now putting where. (I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that, at least in the US, reverse engineering for compatibility or interoperability with an existing system is generally not considered copyright infringement. And if you're planning on interleaving papers deposited in your IR with other library resources in a discovery interface, compatibility is a legitimate concern.) [Note that if you do re-engineer a schema, you shouldn't call it Dewey decimal, because it wouldn't be exactly the same as current or past DDCs, and because OCLC has the trademark for that term. But it might be close enough for your purposes, if you're keen on the numeric-code style of subject browsing, and licensing DDC or UDC won't work for you.] John -- ___ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech
