Here is matt's comment:
<matt> hey jing
<matt> i saw your bugzilla note about retrieving KAR files by LSID
<jing> hi, matt
<matt> The LSID authority service should let you get the KAR file using the
getData(LSID) method
<matt> however, it might be better to not rely on that
<matt> and instead, recognize that the ID is an LSID, extract out the metacat
identifier part, then make a standard call to the ecogrid get method to get the
kar
<matt> do you think that would work?
<jing> if we make sure metacat identifier is part of LSID, it should work.
<matt> it is, in that the metacat id is the namespace:object:rev part of the
lsid
<matt> so there is a 1:1 mapping
<jing> sounds good.
