JANIS databases (versions 3.0 - 3.4)
How to connect to the NEA remote database
- In main JANIS window, menu "Database", select "Load..."
You obtain the JANIS "Load base" dialog :
- In "Type:" drop down list select HTTP
- In "Label:" field enter a name for this new connection, for example NEA
- In "Enter URL:" field enter http://www.oecd-nea.org
- Validate the "Load base" dialog with "OK" button
- In Databases tree you should see a new node with a question mark icon
, and the label you have just entered in previously - This question mark indicates the connection is in progress, it should quickly be replaced by a green checkmark icon
, indicating you are connected to the remote database - You can now browse the NEA database content
How to restore connection to the DVD databases
Please note that the database provided on the JANIS 3.0 and 3.2 DVDs includes ENDF, EXFOR and CINDA in a single database labeled 'Local'. Unfortunately it is not possible with the interface to rebuild exactly the same but the three parts can be loaded individually. If you want to restore the 'Local' database then you may consider erasing your local settings file because this will restore everything to the factory state (all preferences, including default databases). The JANIS 3.0 and 3.2 settings file is named 'janis_636_settings.txt' and is located in your 'home folder'.
Here are common locations of this folder under different operating systems:
| Windows 2000, XP | C:\Documents and Settings\<your login> |
| Windows Vista, 7 | C:\Users\<your login> |
| Mac OS X | /Users/<your login> |
| Unix system (Linux…) | /home/<your login> |
ENDF database
- In main JANIS window, menu "Database", select "Load..."
You obtain the JANIS "Load base" dialog :
- In "Type:" drop down list select JDBC
- In "Label:" field enter a name for this new connection, for example "ENDF"
- In "JDBC Driver" drop down list select H2
- In "JDBC URL" field enter jdbc:h2:F:\database\janis\janis, if F:\ is the path to you DVD drive
- In "User" field enter sa
- Leave the "Password" field empty
- Click the "..." button on the right of the "Root folder" field to browse your drives
- With the dialog browse your drives to select the folder <JANIS DVD>\data
- Validate the "Load base" dialog with "OK" button
- In Databases tree you should see a new node with a question mark icon , and the label you have just entered in previously
- This question mark indicates the connection is in progress, it should quickly be replaced by a green checkmark icon , indicating you are connected to the DVD database
- You can now browse the new database
EXFOR database
Apply the same steps with the following differences:
- You will have to choose another Label, for example "EXFOR"
- In "JDBC URL" field enter jdbc:h2:F:\database\exfor\exfor, if F:\ is the path to you DVD drive
CINDA database
Apply the same steps with the following differences:
- In "Type:" drop down list select CINDA200x
- You will have to choose another Label, for example "CINDA"
- In "JDBC URL" field enter jdbc:h2:F:\database\cinda\cinda, if F:\ is the path to you DVD drive
- You won't have to specify a path to data files (Root folder) because the CINDA database do not use any.
