Introduction
This document is a section of the Administration Guide.
LexEVS Configuration Options
The LexEVS software, documentation, indexes, and system logs are located in the {LEXBIG_DIRECTORY}
...
(e.g.,
...
/usr/local/packages/LexBIG
...
or
...
c:\lexbig).
...
These
...
files
...
may
...
be
...
part
...
of
...
the
...
local
...
file
...
system
...
and
...
may
...
require
...
backup
...
procedures
...
to
...
meet
...
servicability
...
and
...
recovery
...
requirements
...
for
...
your
...
organization.
...
LexEVS
...
uses
...
basic
...
database
...
indexes,
...
but
...
also
...
includes
...
a
...
separate
...
indexing
...
facility
...
using
...
Apache
...
Lucene.
...
Lucene
...
Index
...
files
...
are
...
stored
...
in
...
a
...
directory
...
as
...
specified
...
in
...
the
...
lbconfig.props
...
file
...
index_location
...
variable.

What

Is
...
a

Coding

Scheme
...
Manifest?
...
A

"Coding

Scheme
...
Manifest"
...
(or
...
simply
...
"manifest"
...
as
...
used
...
interchangeably
...
in
...
this
...
document)
...
allows
...
the
...
user
...
to
...
set
...
values
...
for
...
a
...
coding
...
scheme
...
while
...
loading
...
or
...
converting
...
a
...

format.

What Is a Coding Scheme?
Coding Scheme is the term that is used to represent an ontology/terminology being loaded or converted. In the LexGrid data model a terminology is represented as a coding scheme and it can reference other coding schemes. An example of coding scheme is "Amino Acid" which is described in the "amino acid.owl" file.
A Coding Scheme has some meta information about it; values like 'formal name', 'local names', 'default language', 'version', 'copyright', 'sources' to name some.
Why Do We Need a Coding Scheme Manifest?
When a terminology is being converted to the LexGrid data model from its native format (in this case OWL), Coding Scheme information is read from the source file. Sometimes values may be missing (not provided or invalid) or the author/user of the terminology wants to override or set default values despite (or in addition to) what is provided in the source file. This can be accomplished using "manifest" files along with the source file.
How Do We Create a Coding Scheme Manifest File?
A coding scheme manifest file is a valid XML file, conforming to the schema defined by: http://LexGrid.org/schema/LexBIG/2007/01/CodingSchemeManifestList.xsd
...
This
...
XML
...
file
...
can
...
define
...
values
...
for
...
one
...
or
...
more
...
coding
...
schemes
...
you
...
are
...
dealing
...
with.
...
Some
...
coding
...
scheme
...
meta-information
...
may
...
not
...
easily
...
map
...
to
...
information
...
in
...
the
...
source
...
file.
...
In
...
this
...
case
...
a
...
manifest
...
file
...
is
...
of
...
great
...
help
...
to
...
bridge
...
the
...
gap
...
and
...
control
...
the
...
information
...
flow
...
while
...
mapping
...
to
...
the
...
LexGrid
...
model.
...
A
...
detailed
...
model
...
of
...
the
...
LexGrid
...
Coding
...
Scheme
...
and
...
its
...

...
can
...
be

found

online.

This option is used internally by the system to provide default recognition of some common associations. It is typically not necessary to provide this value, however, since association definitions are automatically derived from the source. |
What Code Changes May Be Required To Use a Manifest File?
If you want to use the manifest file, you can supply the manifest file URI to the following methods when Loading NCI OWL or generic OWL Loads:
"org.LexGrid.LexBIG.Extensions.Load.OWL_Loader.load()"
...
"org.LexGrid.LexBIG.Extensions.Load.OWL_Loader.validate()"
