What exactly is the name of the Repository for?

Question

Hi,
in
JCO.createRepository (name, connection)
what is the 'name' parameter for?
I was wondering if I can use the same name for different calls of this function and also with different connections (that may have different permissions)?
What happens inside with this parameter?
bye
Stephan

Hi Stephan,
Using approach described in my blog <a href="/people/maksim.rashchynski/blog/2006/08/14/the-story-about-how-2-eclipse-plugins-helped-me-to-make-a-lot-of-points-on-sdn-forum Story About How 2 Eclipse Plugins helped me to make a lot of points on SDN forum</a> I have figured out:
public static IRepository createRepository(String name, Client client)
     return new Repository(name, client);
public static class Repository extends BasicRepository implements IRepository {
     public Repository(String name, Client client)
          super(name);
          pool_names = new String[0];
          repository_version = 0;
          this.client = client;
public static abstract class BasicRepository implements IRepository
     public BasicRepository(String name)
          function_cache = new Hashtable(13);
          structure_cache = new Hashtable(13);
          this.name = name;
Best regards, Maksim Rashchynski.
