1 Timeout values may be given per-service. That's element 'timeout'
2 which takes three attribute values (a subset may be given): 'session',
3 'z3950_connect', 'z3950_session'. Option -T is no longer supported
4 - used to specify session timeout.
6 Option -t tests the Pazpar2 configuration and returns exit code
7 (0=success, non-zero=failure). In previous version of Pazpar2, -t
8 specified local settings.
10 In version 1.2.0 the configuration file - after include processing -
11 was dumped to stdout. Now, the configuration is only dumped to the
12 yaz log file if option -d is given.
16 Configuration may now have multiple server areas. This means that a
17 Pazpar2 instance may listen on multiple ports. Virtual hosting is not
18 yet supported - on a server basis. Configuration may also have multiple
19 services .. That is repeating service elements inside a server. Each
20 has an attribute 'id' which serves as service ID. This ID in turn may
21 be used in a Pazpar2 session, by specifying parameter service=ID for
22 command init. There can be at most one unnamed service inside a server
23 which can be referred to by not specifying an service ID for command
24 init (backwards compatible). In order to partition multiple servers and
25 services a new include directive has been added. This takes an attribute
26 'src' which specifies one or more sub-files. For example to include
27 service files, one might use:
28 <server >.. <include src=/"etc/pazpar2/conf.d/*.xml"/> .. </server>.
29 It is the intention that that completely makes the settings directive
32 Fix problem where the record command would wait forever if there were
33 no targets to wait for (activeclients == 0).
37 One result set is created per session (last search) rather than for
38 each connection which happen to be shared (bug #3009).
40 marc21 stylesheets changed for efficiency.
44 Session timeout may be specified on the command-line as option -T.
46 Pazpar2 may now be operated in a no-merged mode for records.. All records
47 will be considered unique. This mode is enabled if no mergekey is
48 generated by the normalization stylesheet (pz:xslt).
50 Pazpar2 caches original records from each target and the 'record' command
51 with offset returns the original record if 'syntax' and 'esn' are NOT
52 specified. This speeds up retrieval of original records but also means
53 that Pazpar2 uses more memory. The cached records will be freed when the
54 session terminates or a new search is executed.
56 Pazpar2 no longer uses its own ICU wrapper. Instead the ICU wrapper
57 library part of YAZ is used.
59 Added SRU client support.
61 Automatically computes pz:nativesyntax if not provided. Works for XML and
66 Command bytarget returns name of target (if defined).
70 Fixed bug #2021.. location now holds all brief elements.
74 Fixed check for application/x-www-form-urlencoded parameters.
78 Fixes for IE in pz2.js.
80 Fixed bug #2021: non-merged, brief meta data NOT included for command=show.
84 Changed the JS library pz2.js to use POST for long URL (+ params).
86 Added installation instructions for Windows. Note: NT services is
87 NOT available until we make a new release of YAZ.
89 Preserve order of repeated metadata fields (they were reversed before).
91 More MARC21 information extracted for metadata.
95 Fixed bug #1162: HTML entities are not escaped properly.
97 Native Windows port of Pazpar2. Makefile for Visual Studio provided.
101 Marc21 stylesheet updated to reflect multiple full text fields
105 Fixed bug in pz2.js WRT DOMElement attributes on IE.
107 Fixed bug 2100: Database wildcards not working
111 Added support for retrieval of records in binary.
113 Fixed bug 1794: Pazpar2 does not return valid XML.
115 Deal with ICU not returning sortkey (resulted in SEGV before).
119 JavaScript library pzw2.js throws error if WS response (from Pazpar2 or
120 other) is malformed (non-wellformed XML or missing Pazpar2 OK status).
122 Improved diagnostics when Pazpar2 HTTP decoding fails.
124 Pazpar2 requests may be POSTed as using Content-Type
125 application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
127 Pazpar2 honors LF in HTTP headers.
129 Handle targets that handle negative hit counts (should not happen, but it
134 ICU is used for tokenization and normalization of the following: mergekey,
135 sorting, relevance terms.
137 Debian package now enables ICU tokenization and normalization by default.
141 Exposed user setting values (i.e. non-pz: names) to the record systems in two
142 ways: Either as parameters to the normalization stylesheets (which would allow the
143 programmer to postprocess or use the values in any way) or after the normalization
144 step, in which case values are made part of the normalized record (and available for
145 sorting, termlists, display, or other interface-related use.
147 Implemented sorting by year.
149 Option -d dumps records to the current log file instead of stderr.
151 Fixes for compilation on cygwin.
153 Z39.50 client code uses pz:elements. pz:elements was recognized in
154 earlier Pazpar2 versions but it was not used for anything.
156 icu_chain_test is using fgets instead of getline - fixes compilation
159 Loosen the CCL query parsing so that Pazpar2 only returns error if _all_
160 query conversions fail (rather than _any_). This means targets that do
161 not support some fields are ignored in a search.
165 Improved handling of socket timeout for Z39.50 connections.
167 Misc documentation updates and spell fixes.
169 Debian package pazpar2 creates log rotate entry.
171 Debian package pazpar2-apache2 reloads Apache2.
173 jsdemo included in distribution. It illustrates the use of the js/pz2.js
178 First public release.
