ML: Place the dynamic_dispatch.xqy XQuery file somewhere in ML accessible via your http server


Developers should extend ActiveDocument::Base to create their own domain specific classes.
eg. class Person < ActiveDocument::Base

Search methods called on a class derived from ActiveDocument::Base will return a SearchResults object and are guaranteed to be of the
same domain type (as determined by the element type of the root document node). SearchResults are Enumerable and contain information about
search metrics as well as n number of SearchResult objects. The SearchResult objects contain information about what documents
matched the search and why as well as a method for loading the document into a domain class.

Search methods called on the Finder class will return a SearchResults object and are NOT guaranteed to be of any particular
type (as determined by the element type of the root document node) and in many cases will be of varied type. Developers should
leverage the root_type() method of the SearchResult object for determining what type of domain class to use to
instantiate the document represented by the SearchResult.

Configuration:
Configuration is handled by calling the config() method on either the Finder class or the ActiveDocument::Base class and
passing in the path to the YAML configuration file. See the unit tests for a sample yaml configuration file.
