Scheme Book

Every scheme for one special language (General, Java, XML, etc.) is a separate scheme.

A scheme book is a set of schemes for different languages with a name.

Scheme ID

One special scheme can be identified by four parts: [author]:[name]:[version]:[target]

• author (=groupId) is the user id who upload this scheme.
• name (=artifactId) is the name of this series of schemes.
• version (=version) is for different version.
• target (=module) is the language name.

Version

<MajorVersion [> . <MinorVersion [> . <IncrementalVersion ] ]>

It's a release version when no IncrementalVersion is specified.
