[Exist-development] A very rough first pass at listing all features, services, etc. within eXist and how to configure them.

[Loren C. <lor...@gm...>]

As part of my reviewing the eXist documentation, I am also trying to come up with a simple at a glance view of the features and services in eXist and where that configuration entries for each feature resides.  This is a simple first pass at this after only two hours work.

As you can see, the description entry is blank for most of these.  It is also not in any order.  It was important to start getting something down in writing.  I do not want to get this table bloated with a lot of information.  I will be adding a link for each feature to a page with details on the configuration of the feature and any other relevant information.  This table is in webapp/configuration.xml.  It may eventually move to another location, but it is there for now.

Given all of the above disclaimers, I would appreciate any comments and suggestions.

Thank you,

Loren

Services

The following table lists which services and modules ship with eXist; a description of each; the resources in the eXist installation where they are configured; and whether they are active by default in an out-of-the box configuration.
