Hi, Mike:
I created a bug at http://bugzilla.ecoinformatics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5586
You may add comments and keep track on this bug.
Meanwhile, you may delete the cache directory before starting kepler
when a new version of data file is available. The cache directory
locates at /your-home-dir/.kepler. Deleting cache dir will force kepler
to load the file again.
Thanks,
Jing

Hi Jing,
Not sure if I should respond on the list. Please advise.
I think it would be helpful if I didn't have to change the file name every
time I modify the file contents. I typically keep the filename the same
and use an SVN repository to save versions of the file's content.
So if that check box worked with local files that would help in my
situation.
Cheers,
Mike

Running v2.3 on Mac OSX 10.7.3 Fairly new to Kepler.
I'm trying to use the EML 2 Dataset Actor to read in a local copy (in a
folder on my laptop drive) of a sample metadata (.xml) file using the
EML 2.1.0 schema and a simple 4-column data (.txt) file. I have checked
the files using the http://knb.ecoinformatics.org/emlparser/ site, and
both were validated.
Two problems:
i) If I change either file the Actor doesn't keep up with the changes.
It seems to revert to a cached version of the file as it was when I
first specified it to the Actor (via the EML File: and Data File: fields
in Configure Actor).
Kepler has a cache system to speed the process. Did you change the
file name when you modify a file? I believe if you only change the file
without changing name, Kepler won't reload the new version and will use
the cache. So you have to change the file name when you modify the file
content.
ii) I wondered about checking the "Check for latest version" checkbox.
However doing this generates an error dialog with the message "null
Please enter a new value:" I have to uncheck to stop the error.
This check box is only for packages in a remote repository, e.g. a
Metacat server, it wouldn't work for the local file. We can add this
feature for the local files as well.
If I create a new local copy of the metadata and data file after
editing is completed, and connect those to the Actor it works
(presumably a new local cache is made somewhere).
Couldn't find similar problems on this list; apologies if I missed
something relevant.
Thanks,
Mike
