I'm using
exhibit.getDatabase().removeAllStatements();exhibit.getDatabase().loadDataLinks(function(){});
in my firebug console to refresh the data. Didn't get around to hook
that up to a button yet. I haven't found a way to actually update the
database, I guess you had to do some kind of mark-sweep approach for
that.
Randomly made up pseudo code:
create a new database, loadDataLinks on that, with marksweep() as
callback, in marksweep, go through all arcs in both databases and
update one from the other.
I doubt I'm going to ever hook up my reload step to a timer, as it
really tears down the whole exhibit, and creates the content from
scratch. It does keep the selection on the facets, and the selected
view, but you see the processing bubble, and no content. that's pretty
interruptive to be run on a timer, IMHO.
If you get a real update running, I wanna have! :-)
