Hi Irindu, Piergiorgio will answer your detailed questions -- however, I think he is looking to extend the suite of connectors that can be used to allow ManifoldCF to synchronize documents between repositories. That really means there will be both a repository connector and an output connector for each "repository" we want to work with in this way.
Please bear in mind that ManifoldCF is about documents and metadata, not general database. There will necessarily be a model for document representation when you are writing a connector for a general database that we would expect people to adhere to. Piergiorgio can explain that in more detail. Thanks, Karl On Sun, Feb 25, 2018 at 7:53 AM, Irindu Nugawela <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi All, > I am currently to working on the $subject.
