Edit the parser, index new elements

First of all, we can recommend to use Eclipse (version Luna for example). You will need the Maven extension.
Import the B-HIT project in B-HIT (File/New/Maven Project -> put the location of the directory where you downloaded B-HIT).

Add an simple element (ie. it can be added to an existing table in the database)

1. Choose where you want to save it

Add a repeatable or a more complex element or group of elements (ie. it will need a new table in the database)

1.Choose where you want to save it Example: add a reference group (ABCD2.06) http://www.bgbm.org/tdwg/codata/schema/ABCD_2.06/HTML/ABCD_2.06.html#complexType_Reference_Link031A69A8 A Reference is made of 3 elements: TitleCitation, CitationDetail and URI. As a Reference can be linked to several ABCD concepts, it might make more sense to link the Reference(s) to the concept than to the whole Unit

A) Create a new table in the database for the references, with an auto-incrementation ID. Put a new empty line (referenceID 1, titleCitation null, citationDetail null, URI null) because you will need a foreign key to make the rest easier. B) Add a new column in the table from the concept that will have a Reference (ie. fk_referenceID), and configure it as a foreign-Key with the default value 1 for all the old records) C) Document the file with the "SQL changes". D) Edit the Java code!

• Have a look at the src/org/binhum/abcd/Multimedia.java class. The new class could look like this:

• Have a look at the class of concept you want to link it to

1. The reference will have to be saved in the DB before the concept it belongs to! (because of the foreign key)

• delete by updates!
