Using Xindice 1.1 from JSP/Java

[Matt Allbeury <ma...@clinicdesign.com.au>]

Hi there,
 
Does anyone know how to connect to an Xindice 1.1 database running under
Tomcat, created from the WAR file?
With version 1 I used:
 
db = (Database)Class.forName
("org.apache.xindice.client.xmldb.DatabaseImpl").newInstance ();
DatabaseManager.registerDatabase (db);
col = DatabaseManager.getCollection ("xmldb:xindice:///db");
 
Which worked when Xindice was running as an application.
 
Any help would be much appreciated.
 
Cheers
 
Matt

Hi,

I have tried to connect to an Xindice 1.1 with JSP and Servlet to build some application running on Tomcat, it is works.

But you should ensure that you can type "xindice lc -c /db" to list Xindice with Tomcat, and can user command tools 
(http://xml.apache.org/xindice/dev/guide-commandline.html) to create, add, delete collections and documents.

And the collection should be "xmldb:xindice:///db/your_new_collection"

In your JSP or Servlet, you may import the following 

import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
import org.w3c.dom.Node;
import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;

I hope it may help.
