linking XML docs

Hi people, I was wondering if anyone could offer me some advice. I'm
building a database of XML documents using eXist (which seems pretty
good so far). I can create, store and search individual XML files
without any difficulty. However, I need to link one XML file to
another. For example, one XML file will describe a virus. I was
hoping to store the genetic sequences found in this virus in separate
XML documents, and link these documents in with the virus XML
document. This would be equivalent of linking two tables in a
relational database. Hopefully, eXist would recognise these links and
be able to search through them (eg. find all viruses whose sequence
contains ATGGG)
Any advice on how to do this ?

many thanks for any input

Not sure about eXist but that is what XPointer and XLink are for. Check the
documentation to see if they are supported by eXist. They are W3C specs.

Hi, We have lot of c and fortran archive libraries that have complex dependencies. We have different server tasks that use some of these libraries. We have developed a tool inhouse that links server tasks by continuously iterating until it figures out the correct library order. Recently we introduced some C++ legacy libraries. I am completely new to C++ linking. Is there some tutorial that can explain the nuances of C++ linking? We do...

I just read this in the description of how C++ is supposed to be implemented: "All external object and function references are resolved. Library components are linked to satisfy external references to functions and objects not defined in the current translation. All such translator output is collected into a program image which contains information needed for execution in its execution environment." What I'm wondering is what exactly...

Hi, I'm not sure this is completely a C related question since it's more about linking problems, so don't hesitate to redirect me to a more appropriate NG. I have a set of useful functions (let's call this SUF) that facilitates my life when coding, such as memory allocation wrappers or generic string functions. I have a project composed of a shared library (SL) and a main program (MP) using SL. For some reasons, I don't want to make a...

I am trying to use the library conio2 and though I have managed with a few relatively simple examples when i try to compile a program which conio's function clrscr is not in main() i get an error from the linker. undefined reference to `clrscr' ld returned 1 exit status I include the conio2.h on top of the file where clrscr() fn is. How do I pass the -lconio parameter when I have multiple files?Isn't it:

I work with a multi-project workspace. One project (the "startup" project) has a "Configuration Type" of "Application (.exe)". The other 40 projects have a "Configuration Type" of "Static Library (.lib)". My question: Should the linker incrementally link when I make a change to one of the ..cpps in one of my .lib projects? For VC6 the answer is yes.

I've been having trouble getting incremental linking to work under Visual C++ .net 2003 7.1 for my multi-project workspace. Ronald Laeremans and Carl Daniel (and a few others) helped me figure it out. Short answer: I should never have expected incremental linking to work. Short answer addendum: Linking is slower in 7.1/.net/2003 than VC++6. ===

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
