[MOBY-dev] attn Ken - "new" method added to MOBY::Central

[mwilkinson]

Both methods were already in the API, and until someone finds time to code the unimplemented one, I'm afraid we'll have to make do with what we have.

Actually, I must have implemented this method while in Boston, because it worked already at the MobyCentral end - it was only the client that was not working properly.

I hope that your subject means:
   new method added...
and not:
   "new" method added...

Regarding the method itself, I was waiting for something like that for
long time (I think I have asked for it in Boston? doesn't matter). But I
do not support your decision to have two similar methods - as it seems now
(eventhough one of them is not yet implemented). I would much prefer to
have just one method (whatever named) that returns the object definition,
including object internal XML shcema. In the meantime, the method can
simply return the XML schema part empty until someone implements it.
