Description Susan McCourt CLA 2009-02-26 17:00:48 EST 
Some of the IRepository.PROP_xxx flags are only obtainable from the repo manager (nickname), some are obtainable from both (name), and some only from the repo itself.  

We need to clarify how these flags work in the documentation.

Fix

I have added more details to get/setRepositoryProperty on IRepositoryManager to describe which properties are applicable. I also added @see references in the javadoc for each property, referring to the applicable methods that will return that property. The PROP_SYSTEM and PROP_NICKNAME constants now also specify that they are not stored on the repository itself.
