Queries related to jackrabbit

Hi All,

            

 

I have few questions related to Jackrabbit.

1.	How many "workspaces" can we create in a
repository? Can the
workspace be created dynamically? Currently, we are using
"Default"
workspace, right?
2.	If multiple workspaces are created, how does it affect
the
performance of the system?
3.	Does individual workspace gets indexed separately? If it
is,
then if one workspace gets corrupted, then we can restore
just that
workspace instead of the whole repository.
4.	Does JBoss allow multiple Jackrabbit repositories?

 

Thanks,

Anilk.

yes, there's a default workspace which is used when you
don't specify a a workspace on login, see e.g.
http://www.day.com/maven/jsr170/
javadocs/jcr-1.0/javax/jcr/Repository.html#login(javax.j
cr.Credentials,%20java.lang.String)

you can have as many worksapces as you want. workspace
creation
is not covered by JCR 1.0 but will be in JCR 2.0. for the
tome being
you can use the jackrabbit api, see
http://jackrabbit.apache.
org/api/1.3/org/apache/jackrabbit/api/JackrabbitWorkspace.ht

there shouldn't be any notable performance impact.

yes

haven't tried it, but yes, that could work.

repositories?

sure, that only depends on your deployment/configuration.
