Client Server Architecture

Introduction

This manual is written during the development of OCAD server module. All the features in the manner described here are subject to change. The manual reflects the functionality of the current implementation and how to work with it. This is not a final implementation an my have bugs and functionality faults. The current state is mostly tested with Postgres SQL – Server 8.2.9 and should work with the version mentioned before or higher. Working with an Oracle database is not yet supported, this will be a step for the future.

Installation of the Database

To be able to use the OCAD-Server Module you have to install a Postgres SQL – Server. The version used for development was 8.2.9. You can get Postgres from http://www.postgres.org. The module was developed with a Postgres Server on a Windows platform. To work with the server module you have to create a user called ocad11 – this is currently hard coded. As next step you must setup 6 core tables and 3 sequences for the module and alter the ocad11 user to them.
