the home path can now be distinguished between
- data home; the path where the DATA directory is created
- application home; everything else
This will make it possible to store application data on Mac releases within the
~/Library/YaCy
directory; a place where Mac applications write their data.
Similar techniques will be possible for debian and windows.
To use the new data path, YaCy can be started with
-start <data path>
or
-gui <data path>

- removed the plasma package. The name of that package came from a very early pre-version of YaCy, even before YaCy was named AnomicHTTPProxy. The Proxy project introduced search for cache contents using class files that had been developed during the plasma project. Information from 2002 about plasma can be found here:
http://web.archive.org/web/20020802110827/http://anomic.de/AnomicPlasma/index.html
We stil have one class that comes mostly unchanged from the plasma project, the Condenser class. But this is now part of the document package and all other classes in the plasma package can be assigned to other packages.
- cleaned up the http package: better structure of that class and clean isolation of server and client classes. The old HTCache becomes part of the client sub-package of http.
- because the plasmaSwitchboard is now part of the search package all servlets had to be touched to declare a different package source.

- The indexing queue was a historic data structure that was introduced at the very beginning at the project as a part of the switchboard organisation object structure. Without the indexing queue the switchboard queue becomes also superfluous. It has been removed as well.
- Removing the switchboard queue requires that all servlets are called without a opaque generic ('<?>'). That caused that all serlets had to be modified.
- Many servlets displayed the indexing queue or the size of that queue. In the past months the indexer was so fast that mostly the indexing queue appeared empty, so there was no use of it any more. Because the queue has been removed, the display in the servlets had also to be removed.
- The surrogate work task had been a part of the indexing queue control structure. Without the indexing queue the surrogates needed its own task management. That has been integrated here.
- Because the indexing queue had a special queue entry object and properties attached to this object, the propterties had to be moved to the queue entry object which is part of the new indexing queue withing the blocking queue, the Response Object. That object has now also the new properties of the removed indexing queue entry object.

divided that class into three parts:
- the peers object is now hosted by the plasmaSwitchboard
- the crawler elements are now in a new class, crawler.CrawlerSwitchboard
- the index elements are core of the new segment data structure, which is a bundle of different indexes for the full text and (in the future) navigation indexes and the metadata store. The new class is now in kelondro.text.Segment
The refactoring is inspired by the roadmap to create index segments, the option to host different indexes on one peer.

- removed distinction between header file types for http and ftp; ftp is simulated by using http properties
- removed all old resourceInfo classes that handled this distinction
- introduced a new distinction between http request and http response objects
- unified new response objects with two other object types that had been introduced elsewhere
- changed all servlet call methods to use the new http request header object type
- divided static object keys for http header properties into request and response types
- refactoring here and there (a large number of type changes and many methods merged/moved)

- moved constants from plasmaSwitchboard to own class (all 232 ;)
- moved remoteProxy-Methods to httpRemoteProxyConfig, better names
- removed some unnecessary code (else-statements)
* formatting (correct indentation)
* minor bugfixes (due to findbugs.sf.net)
* hopefully fixed "missing quote" (announcing StringParts as UTF-8)

This change is inspired by the need to see a network connected to the index it creates in a indexing team.
It is not possible to divide the network and the index. Therefore all control files for the network was moved to the network within the INDEX/<network-name> subfolder.
The remaining YACYDB is superfluous and can be deleted.
The yacyDB and yacyNews data structures are now part of plasmaWordIndex. Therefore all methods, using static access to yacySeedDB had to be rewritten. A special problem had been all the port forwarding methods which had been tightly mixed with seed construction. It was not possible to move the port forwarding functions to the place, meaning and usage of plasmaWordIndex. Therefore the port forwarding had been deleted (I guess nobody used it and it can be simulated by methods outside of YaCy).
The mySeed.txt is automatically moved to the current network position. A new effect causes that every network will create a different local seed file, which is ok, since the seed identifies the peer only against the network (it is the purpose of the seed hash to give a peer a location within the DHT).
No other functional change has been made. The next steps to enable network switcing are:
- shift of crawler tables from PLASMADB into the network (crawls are also network-specific)
- possibly shift of plasmaWordIndex code into yacy package (index management is network-specific)
- servlet to switch networks

- instead of pushing urls to other peers, the urls are actively pulled
by the peer that wants to do a remote crawl
- the remote crawl push process had been removed
- a process that adds urls from remote peers had been added
- the server-side interface for providing 'limit'-urls exists since 0.55 and works with this version
- the list-interface had been removed
- servlets using the list-interface had been removed (this implementation did not properly manage double-check)
- changes in configuration file to support new pull-process
- fixed a bug in crawl balancer (status was not saved/closed properly)
- the yacy/urls-protocol was extended to support different networks/clusters
- many interface-adoptions to new stack counters

- before absolute paths would be expanded incorrectly, e.g.: fooPath=/a/b/c would become /path/to/yacy/root/a/b/c. Now you can put nearly every dynamically generated data with a configurable path to a location outside of yacys root dir without having to use symlinks (probably good for third party distribution packaging).
- abstractServerSwitch.getConfigPath(setting, default) returns a File instance, either with an absolute path or relative to the applications root path.
- exceptions (hardcoded):
DATA/LOG/yacy.logging
DATA/SETTINGS/httpProxy.conf
DATA/SETTINGS/user.db
TODO: all of these are the global configuration files and they should probably be put into _one_ command line configurable settings path, so it would be possible to package them in /etc/ for example.
- add missing workPath to yacy.init (it was used in code, but there was no default in the file)
- fix broken skinPath (was skinsPath in yacy.init but skinsPath in the code) + a few other broken config reading caused by typos.
- replaced path setting names and their default values with the related static fields in plasmaSwitchboard where not already done/existing

- put(key, value) methods are now used if a value added to the map should be kept as it is. Numbers are transformed (but not formatted) to an equivalent String representation.
- putASIS(...) have been removed, now done with simple put(...) (see above).
- puNum(...) can be used for number values which should be stored in a formatted way, either depending on the current locale setting for yacy (default) or in a "none" locale (see javadocs and setLocalize()).
- putHTML(...) escapes special characters into corresponding HTML enities ('<' => '<') which was done with put(...) before and so was called too often, becauses it is necessary only for very few cases. Additionally there is a "forXML" mode which only replaces < > & ".
In short: Use put(...) for almost everything, use putXY(...) if you need some special transformation of the value.
A few bugs have been fixed as well, and there should be a small performance improvement for complex pages with a lot of values.
* added additional Sum/Avg rows to access tracker pages, see http://forum.yacy-websuche.de/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=456
* removed duplicate code (mostly related to the big changes above).
TODO:
- make sure, number formats work as expected _everywhere_, report overseen stuff http://forum.yacy-websuche.de/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=437
- probably a good idea to add special putDate() methods as they are used in many pages and create duplicated formatting code + maybe some centralized handling for memory value formatting.
- further improve the speed of page creation for the WatchCrawler.

search profiling showed, that a major amount of time is wasted by computing url hashes. The computation does an intranet-check, which needs a DNS lookup. This caused that each urlhash computation needed 100-200 milliseconds, which caused remote searches to delay at least 1 second more that necessary. The solution to this problem is to attach a URL hash to the URL data structure, because that means that the url hash value can be filled after retrieval of the URL from the database. The redesign of the url/urlhash management caused a major redesign of many parts of the software. Since some parts had been decided to be given up they had been removed during this change to avoid unnecessary maintenance of unused code.

redesign for better IO performance
enhanced database seek-time by avoiding write operations at distant
positions of a database file. until now, a USEDC counter was written
at the head-section of a kelondroRecords database file (which is the
basic data structure of all kelondro database files) to store the
actual number of records that are contained in the database. Now, this
value is computed from the database file size. This is either done
only once at start-time, or continuously when run in asserts enabled.
The counter is then updated only in RAM, and written at close of the
file. If the close fails, the correct number can be computed from the
file size, and if this is not equal to the stored number it is a strong
evidence that YaCY was not shut down properly.
To preserve consistency, the complete storage-routine had to be re-written.
Another change enhances read of nodes in some cases, where the data-tail
can be read together with the data-head. This saves another IO lookup during
each DB node fetch.
Includes also many small bugfixes.

- added some settings and statistics for url-fetcher 'server'-mode
- added own stack for fetchable URLs

various checks like the blacklist check or the robots.txt disallow check are now
done by a separate thread to unburden the indexer thread(s)
TODO: maybe we have to introduce a threadpool here if it turn out that this single
thread is a bottleneck because of the time consuming robots.txt downloads
*) improved index transfer
The index selection and transmission is done in parallel now to improve index
transfer performance.
TODO: maybe we could speed up performance by unsing multiple transmission threads in
parallel instead of only a single one.
*) gzip encoded post requests
it is now configureable if a gzip encoded post request should be send on
intex transfer/distribution
*) storage Peer (very experimentell and not optimized yet)
Now it's possible to send the result of the yacy indexer thread to a remote peer
istead of storing the indexed words locally.
This could be done by setting the property "storagePeerHash" in the yacy config file
- Please note that if the index transfer fails, the index ist stored locally.
- TODO: currently this index transfer is done by the indexer thread.
To seedup the indexer
a) this transmission should be done in parallel and
b) multiple chunks should be bundled and transfered together
*) general performance improvements
- better memory cleanup after http request processing has finished
- replacing some string concatenations with stringBuffers
- replacing BufferedInputStreams with serverByteBuffer
- replacing vectors with arraylists wherever possible
- replacing hashtables with hashmaps wherever possible
This was done because function calls to verctor or hashtable functions
take 3 time longer than calls to functions of arraylists or hashmaps.
TODO: we should take a look on the class serverObject which is inherited from hashmap
Do we realy need a synchronization for this class?
TODO: replace arraylists with linkedLists if random access to the list elements is not needed
*) Robots Parser supports if-modified-since downloads now
If the downloaded robots.txt file is older than 7 days the robots parser tries to
download the robots.txt with the if-modified-since header to avoid unnecessary downloads
if the file was not changed. Additionally the ETag header is used to detect changes.
*) Crawler: better handling of unsupported mimeTypes + FileExtension
*) Bugfix: plasmaWordIndexEntity was not closed correctly in
- query.java
- plasmaswitchboard.java
*) function minimizeUrlDB added to yacy.java
this function tests the current urlHashDB for unused urls
ATTENTION: please don't use this function at the moment because
it causes the wordIndexDB to flush all words into the
word directory!
