Installation and Setup Guide for Data Retrieval Tools:

This section describes the setup and the configurations of the external 
tools and libraries.  Please be noted that the following installation
instructions are for Windows 2000 or Windows XP systems only.  
The steps to create or change Windows Environment Variables are:
  1. Right-click on 'My Computer' at the desktop.
  2. Click on 'Properties' and then choose 'Advanced' from the top menu bar.
  3. Click on the button 'Environment Variables...'.
  4. There are two windows: one is for 'System Variables' and the other 
     is for "User variables'. Normally we want to change 'System Variables'.  
  5. If we want to create a new environment variable, for example 
     "%CLASSPATH% = C:\java", we can click on the button 'New...'. On 
     the pop-up window, enter "CLASSPATH" to the text bar named 
     'Variable Name' and "C:\java" to the text bar named 'Variable Value'.
  6. If we want to change an existing environment variable, for example 
     adding "D:\Tomcat" to the variable "%PATH%", we can double-clicking 
     the variable "PATH" from the 'System Variables' window. Then on the 
     pop-up window, add "D:\Tomat" to the text bar named 'Variable Value'.

  2. Unzip and install the downloaded Jena package to your preferred location, 
     such as C:\Program Files\Jena.
  3. Set a Windows environment variable %JENAROOT% to reflect the location where 
     Jena package is installed, such as C:\Program Files\Jena.
  4. Set the Java classpath (Windows environment variable %CLASSPATH%) to include 
     all the JAR files in the %JENAROOT%/lib directory
          JENAROOT\lib\jena.jar
          JENAROOT\lib\xercesImpl.jar
          JENAROOT\lib\xml-apis.jar

          JENAROOT\lib\junit.jar
          JENAROOT\lib\commons-logging.jar
          JENAROOT\lib\log4j-1.2.7.jar
          JENAROOT\lib\rdf-api-2001-01-19.jar
  5. Test the Jena installation by running "test.bar" on a Windows Command Prompt.

If MySQL database is to be employed as data storage, MySQL database can be downloaded, 
installed and configured as follows:

   1.2. Install the downloaded MySQL package to your preferred location, 
        such as 'C:\Program Files\mysql'.
   1.3. Setup password for the default user 'root'.
	  Mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost=PASSWORD('new_password');
   1.4. Delete the default user '' for security reason:
        mysql> DELETE FROM user WHERE Host='localhost' AND User='';
   1.5. Create a new username/password and grant all priviledges:
        mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO username@localhost 
               IDENTIFIED BY 'password' WITH GRANT OPTION;

 2. Installation and configuration for MySQL Connector J/3.0 (JDBC)
   2.1. Download a free JDBC package from http://www.mysql.com/.
   2.2. Unzip the downloaded package to your preferred location, such as 'D:\jdbc'.
   2.3. Set the Java classpath (%CLASSPATH%) to include the JAR file.
        For example: CLASSPATH = %CLASSPATH%;D:\jdbc\mysql_jdbc\mysql-connector-java-2.0.14-bin.jar
