Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-1071:
-----------------------------------------
And, by the way, "lucene date format" is in fact ISO-8601, and there is support
in mcf-core for parsing and producing such dates. Would be good to use that
primitive instead of your own.
> The windows Shares connector needs some improvement in dates and other fields
> management

> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: JCIFS connector
> Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 1.7
> Reporter: Antonio David Pérez Morales
> Assignee: Karl Wright
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: ManifoldCF 1.8

>
> Right now the connector is overwriting the tika metadata "creation_date" and
> "last_modification_Date" for a document. This is happening because at a
> Windows Shares level you have a creation_date and a last_modification_date
> (related to the creation of the document in the windows shares filesystem)
> that are different from the creation_date and the last_modification_date
> associated to the original file.
> There is the need to change the metadata name to distinguish between this 2
> layers of dates and guaranteeing flexibility to the user to use the one that
> he/she wants with a proper mapping.
> A plus can be to format the date in the lucene standard, to be aligned with a
> proper standard.
> - Url metadata :
> Can be useful to extract the Url and store it in a specific metadata (
> further than the ID of the document). In this way we can keep it as Id but
> also use it with other mappings without affecting the Id field.
> - Parent Directory path :
> Can be useful to extract the Path for the directory that contains the current
> file. Evaluate well this as can be a redundancy or an improvement.
