Hello Sedna Team, May I suggest that it would be neat if there were to be new option, say, "-xml", available on the Sedna Runtime Configuration Utility, se_rc, command line.
This option would indicate that the same information that is currently output (via stdout) in plain text is output in XML format instead. Currently my Sedna management interface has to do a lot of tedious string manipulation to "parse" the runtime config information in order to determine whether Governor is running or not, what Storage Managers are running and what connections are active in number. In addition, it would be useful if the runtime config information items included a list of database instances in existence to save having to scan the Sedna cfg and/or data directory for what databases have been created. Something along the following sample XML format is suggested := <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <config version="(say major.minor build number)" xmlns="http://www.modis.ispras.ru/sedna/runtime-config";> <se_gov status="running"/> <se_sm name="dbfoo" dateTime-created="(some xs:dateTime value)" status="running" connections="2"/> <se_sm name="dbbar" dateTime-created="(some xs:dateTime value)" status="running" connections="1"/> <se_sm name="wiki-db" dateTime-created="(some xs:dateTime value)" status="stopped" connections="0"/> </config> Obviously we can get into creeping elegance here, but if you can accommodate the essence of this idea in some fashion, Sedna power users would surely be appreciative.
