3* In version 2.18 of the VLO, the URL mapping has been changed. To prevent
4existing references and bookmarks from breaking, add rewrite rules to the
5HTTP server to achieve the following mappings:
6
7[TODO: Define actual mod_rewrite rules and document here]
8
9- {vlobase}/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:eu.clarin.cmdi.vlo.pages.ShowResultPage&docId={docId}
10        -> {vlobase}/record?docId={docId}
11
12- {vlobase}/?wicket:bookmarkablePage=:eu.clarin.cmdi.vlo.pages.ShowAllFacetValuesPage&selectedFacet={facet}
13        -> {vlobase}/values/{facet}
14
15In both case all additional GET parameters SHOULD be kept.
16
17Next to the URL mapping, the XML parameter file has undergone some changes:
18
19    <pagesInApplicationCache>40</pagesInApplicationCache>
20   
21    <sessionCacheSize>10000</sessionCacheSize>
22
23Has been added to tune the Wicket page cache. The first parameter allows you
24to set the size of the application wide cache holding pages. The second parameter
25denotes the size of the cache (in kilobytes) associated with a session. The values
26listed above are the Wicket defaults.
27
28Other changes in the parameter file:
29- maxFileSize and use MaxFileSize have been integrated into one parameter:
30 
31  maxFileSize
32
33  If equal to 0, no upper limit to the size of metadata input files will be
34  applied.
35
36- maxDaysToLife has been renamed into maxDaysInSolr
37
38- VloHomeLink has been renamed into homeUrl
39
40- helpUrl has been added; a link to a help page.
41
42- The facetConceptsFile parameter, referencing the facetConcepts.xml file,
43  has been added also. This is part of the effort of making parameterised
44  instantiation of the VLO possible.
45
46- Also, the facetOverviewLength parameter has been added. This parameter controls
47  the listing of facets on the search page.
48
49- Similar to 'useMaxFileSize' the expectReverseProxy parameter has been removed
50
51Finally,
52
53    <cqlEndpointFilter>http://cqlservlet.mpi.nl/</cqlEndpointFilter>
54   
55    <cqlEndpointAlternative>http://cqlservlet.mpi.nl/</cqlEndpointAlternative>
56
57add the possibility of creating a filter for endpoints.
