2 //**TM2JDBC** is a implementation of the TopicMaps API ([[TMAPI 2.0.2>>url:http://www.tmapi.org/2.0/||shape="rect"]]). It is a fast, production-grade Topic Maps Engine with a small dependency footprint. TM2JDBC uses a relational database to store its data, and is verified to operate with Apache Derby, MySQL, MSSQL Server and Oracle databases.//

5 TM2JDBC is released in version 1.0.1. This release features some dependency updates and minor corrections of inconsistencies within the code, but is fully compatible to version 0.9.0.

8 * Updated TMAPI dependency to version 2.0.2 (the prior version already was compliant with TMAPI 2.0.2, but still referenced a snapshot as the final library was not released)
9 * OSGi support – The library now comes packaged as an OSGi-bundle, which allows it to be deployed to your OSGi container of choice. This has no side-effencts on non-OSGi projects
10 * Updated clazzes.org-dependencies to the current version

48 TM2JDBC needs a relational database and the appropriate JDBC 4.0 compatible driver to function. However it does not have any direct dependencies to a specific JDBC connector. Instead, it expects a {{code language="none"}}javax.sql.DataSource{{/code}} to be set as a property (see below), which it will use to obtain database connections. Although the engine should function with any DataSource implementation, we strongly recommend to use the [[Apache Commons DBCP>>url:http://commons.apache.org/dbcp/||shape="rect"]] library. A rudimentary set-up for a {{code language="none"}}BasicDataSource{{/code}} can be found in the class {{code language="none"}}org.clazzes.tm2jdbc.util.test.DataSourceProvider{{/code}}.

54 To handle database connectivity, the TM2JDBC engine relies on a{{code language="none"}}javax.sql.DataSource{{/code}} to be set for the property ##(% class="nolink" %)http:~/~/psi.clazzes.org/topicmaps/db-connection/datatsource(%%)## in the Factory (attempting to call {{code language="none"}}newTopicMapSystem(){{/code}} without the property being set causes an{{code language="none"}}IllegalStateException{{/code}} to be thrown. The property string can also be accessed directly via the Enum object{{code language="none"}}org.clazzes.tm2jdbc.voc.PropertyKey.CONNECTION_DATASOURCE{{/code}}. The most basic setup could look like this:

87 The engine provides a setup-utility to create the tables it needs in a provided database schema. This utility can either be run as a standalone java executable (in the command line, via a shell script etc.) or instanciated as a Java Object by your own code (see below). The class name is {{code language="none"}}org.clazzes.tm2jdbc.jdbc.setup.DBSetup{{/code}}. For testing and development, it may be useful to run the setup utility in commandline or the development evironment of your choice. The standard use-case is to set up the database schema, but you can also use it to drop all tables in the schema.
88 Making sure that the appropriate database drivers are added to the classpath, the accepts arguments like this:

212 The database setup-utility also can be run in java. For this case it provides a constructor which takes a {{code language="none"}}javax.sql.DataSource{{/code}}, and provides the methods {{code language="none"}}setUpDB(boolean debug){{/code}} and {{code language="none"}}dropAllTables(boolean supressErrors){{/code}}. It is recommended to use these instead of running the {{code language="none"}}main(String[] args){{/code}} method with the appropriate arguments.

218 TMAPI provides an extensive suite of Testcases to assure compliancy, which is also included in the TM2JDBC package. As the original tests were not conceived for engines which are based on an RDBMS, the {{code language="none"}}setUp(){{/code}} and {{code language="none"}}tearDown(){{/code}} methods where modified to initialize and drop the database schema between every test. You are welcome to subject the engine to additional tests (we would especially appreciate you to share the results with us), and for this purpose TM2JDBC provides the utility class{{code language="none"}}org.clazzes.tm2jdbc.util.test.DataSourceProvider{{/code}} (depends on Apache commons DBCP).
219 It is recommended to use this utility in all test cases as follows:
