Improvement / New Feature Details

Edit tool to file C_PATH and C_SYMBOL when adding new item

JIRA ISSUES: [CORE-135]

In the i2b2 metadata table there are two columns (C_PATH and C_SYMBOL) that are used exclusively by the Ontology Mapping tool. Prior to release 1.7.03 these columns were not populated when you added a new term via the Edit Terms view. This situation has been rectified in that these columns will now be populated with the appropriate data when creating a new container, folder, term, or modifier from within the Edit Terms view.

Edit Tool view: Line feeds removed from Metadataxml

JIRA ISSUES: [CORE-141]

In the Edit Terms view users can create terms that have values associated to them. These values are stored in the C_METADATAXML column in the custom metadata table. Prior to release 1.7.03 when you created or edited a term with values in the Edit Tool view, the metadata was stored in the table with carriage returns / line feeds. This change improves the way the metadataxml if filed into the table by removing all line feeds from the data before filing it into the C_METADATAXML column
