Installation

Note: IF you are upgrading an existing installation of CED2AR AND you back up and restore your config files (like we do) THEN you need to add the contents of the patch files to your existing config files. Instructions are at: Patches/v2.9.0.0

For server installation:

  • ced2ar.war is the server binary
  • BaseX.war is the server database template
  • ced2ardata2ddi.war is the server binary for the ced2ardata2ddi service
  • redeploy_ced2ar_v2.sh is a script used to backup some config files before redeploying ced2ar-web.war.

For desktop installation:

  • ced2ar.jar is the desktop binary
  • ced2ar.sh will run ced2ar.jar

New Features and Issues

Currently, new features and issues come from two sites:

  • GitHub - The public site where users of the system can post Issues.
  • JIRA - The restricted site used by the development team to track work related to CED2AR development.

We try to cross reference a GitHub issue against a jira issue (CDR).

New Features

The following high level features have been added in this release:

  • New +Create tab in Manage codebooks page. - Allows the user to take a dataset (Stata or SPSS) and generate a basic DDI-C codebook. Finally, the new codebook is loaded into the CED2AR database. This is an experimental feature that works with file datasets. (The repository option has not been implemented.)
    User Documentation
    CDR-207, CDR-208, CDR-213, CDR-227, CDR-239, CDR-240

  • The Modify a Codebook page is now titled Manage codebooks - There were some minor UI changes to the v2.8 page, tabs and buttons. In v2.9, the new page title is Manage codebooks. The old Add tab is now Upload.
    CDR-208

  • ced2ardata2ddi service added - A new SOA service has been added to support the conversion of datasets (Stata or SPSS) into DDI-C codebook format. (The SOA service is only used in the +Create tab. System administrators have the option of turning off this service. If the administrator unchecks the service, the +Create tab will not be displayed to the user.)
