Each stores it's own bit of the repository from the binval table that stores binary data to the refs table that stores references to other nodes.
An easier way to go is to use the jackrabbit library (http://jackrabbit.apache.org) in your external tool and then let jackrabbit worry about where and how to write table data. Added plus is when the persistence manager for magnolia changes in your implementation, you only need to change the persistence manager in the tool. No need to do a full rewrite just because the db, schema and/or encoding changed. Just my take in the issue. --David ---------------------------------------------------------------- for list details see http://www.magnolia.info/en/developer.html ----------------------------------------------------------------
