Re: Creating Topic-Map-View of relational data: msg#00024

Subject: Re: Creating Topic-Map-View of relational data
Hi Lutz,

I'm not fully convinced that we have what you are looking for,
but you may have a look a semantag[1]. It's a jelly[2] based set of
xml-tags to create topicmaps from a broad range of structured data
sources, including relational databases.

It's fully functional and I'm busy producing topicmaps with it (some
scripts are here[3]), but unfortunately there's currently neither a
release nor documentation.

In order to use it, you would need to grab it from cvs and check the
java-srcs for the attributes you can use. This sounds frightening but if
you have some java experience, it shouldn't be too hard to succeed.

If this sounds interesting for you, please feel free to contact me.

bye
Christoph
