There are also other loose ends - like document caching, meta data
handling, etc - which is good to have fixed before release.
There is the problem that changes to the database that are made
via the local interface (command line) are not reflected in a
running server instance, i.e. in Tomcat. Maybe this makes a
candidate for nice-to-fix?
No, this one does not. But bring in other suggestions :)
Regarding your problem. You should never attempt to open database files from two
processes, such as Tomcat & command line tool with -l switch, since that will
corrupt your database. If you are running instance of db in Tomcat, use db URL
in the command line to access this running instance, instead of -l switch [1]:
./bin/xindice lc -c xmldb:xindice://localhost:8080/db
BTW, have you tried the latest trunk? If you are using windows it should prevent
you from concurrently accessing same database files from different processes. It
does not work for me in OS X though... When Xindice drops minimum java 1.3
requirement, we could use java 1.4's new file I/O to make file locking work on
all platforms.
