Re: [stellation-res] non-tested TClient code

[Jim Wright - IBM Research <jwright@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've just uploaded zipfiles of my versions of the current codebase.
These replace the previous versions, and are available at the same URL:
http://stellation.eclipse.org/twiki/bin/view/Stellation/TClientCode

Please note: this is not a tested release!  This code is current 
work-in-progress,
posted here primarily for access by those working actively on the code.

The posted zipfiles include up-to-date version of
org.eclipse.stellation.scm.{model, ui}, with obsolete packages and files
removed.  These two projects are significantly different from the versions
uploaded by Annie on 3/11.

I've also uploaded zipfiles of org.eclipse.stellation.{remote,repos,util}.
These are virtually identical to Annie's versions; the main differences
seem to be:
a) I've removed a Cloudscape dependence from a plugin.xml file (in 'repos',
   I think).  Anyone using Cloudscape will need to restore this.
b) There is a CompoundMergeConflict in 'repos' which is not present in
   Annie's version.

I have tested this drop using the MergeTest JUnit tests
(org.eclipse.stellation.scm.tests/MergeTest).  All currently enabled tests
succeed (tests 1, 2, 4).

Please note that the ScmAccessSpec used by the merge tests is configured using
the test.properties file in the 'testData' folder (in 'scm.model' project).
This specifies database type & name, remote or local server, username and 
password.
If you are using a different database (e.g. Cloudscape), you'll want to 
change this
(you'll also need to launch Cloudscape & initialize the test db, of course).
