Will I be able to ask BaseX to look in more than one place for its RESTXQ? (For its databases?)
Per BaseX instance, there will only be a single database and RESTXQ path. What you can do is:
– run one web server and deploy several BaseX instances as WAR files with different configurations – use the existing configuration and specify your own conventions for database and RESTXQ directory names.
I would usually opt for the second solution, as long as the RESTXQ paths don’t overlap.
If Arve's suggestion of using symlinks to manage the encapsulation amounts to your second suggestion, I concur that sounds like the simplest approach. It's our job to see that the RESTXQ paths don't overlap in any case isn't it? :-)
(The only question in my mind is how portable symlinks are across operating systems, but I have hopes as long as everything is NTFS, right? I'm sure you and many readers of this list know the answer to that question, and in any case one can always try.)
Thanks again, Wendell
