Subject: Re: Canonical Path and Path Filter proposed specificatrion
Query team, One way to avoid the "SchemeURN" issue is to NOT require that the classification scheme be identified as the first element returned in the getPath() method. Instead, we could rely on the separate, already existing, getClassificationScheme() method to get an identifier for the parent classification scheme. That would leave us free to specify that the getPath() method returns just the delimited occurrences of "codes" from the first to last nodes in the path. Example: Assuming the NIACS Classification Scheme with the node having code="441221" and name="Motorcycle Dealers" we should decide if getPath() returns: Choice 1) "/44/441/4412/44122/441221" or Choice 2) "urn:www.census.gov:naics:naicscod.txt/44/441/4412/44122/441221" I realize that this is a personal preference decision and that either style will work, but in view of the already existing method to get the classification scheme, I see no compelling reason to repeat that information in the getPath() method. -- Len At 11:33 AM 9/28/01, Nikola Stojanovic wrote: ><Farrukh> >Per action item from previous team meeting I have attached an initial >proposal for your consideration and discussion in tomorrows meeting. ></Farrukh> > >I'd like to emphasize that the current proposal has an open issue of >handling a "SchemeURN" (line 91).
