I'm a newbie MonetDB user and have two issues out of the box. (I have
downloaded and installed the latest stable version, on Mac OS X
10.6.3.)
1. I cannot get the command line history function to work with XQuery.
I invoke the server with:
Mserver --dbinit="module(pathfinder);"
and invoke a client with:
mclient -lx --history
However, the command line history does not work; hitting the up arrow
after a command results in "^[[A" being displayed:
shell> mclient -lx --history
Welcome to mclient, the MonetDB/XQuery interactive terminal
Type \q to quit, \? for a list of available commands
xquery>\^[[A
2. When loading namespaces and modules, and making an error, the error
can only be corrected *after* I restart the client and server
processes. For example, when I try to import a module with namespace
"http://www.foo.edu" but accidentally type "http://www.food.edu", I
receive an error message. This is expected. However, if I try again to
import the module again, this time with the correct namespace, I get
the same exact error message (complete with "http://www.food.edu").
This continues unless I restart both the client and server.
Is this a "feature", or am I doing something incorrectly?
Thanks for your help,
Steve
