IMetadataRepository createRepository(URI location, String name, String type, Map<String,String> properties) throws ProvisionException, OperationCanceledException
The resulting repository is added to the list of repositories tracked by
the repository manager. Clients must make a subsequent call to IRepositoryManager.removeRepository(URI)
if they do not want the repository manager to remember the repository for subsequent
load attempts.

- the absolute location for the new repositoryname
- the name of the new repositorytype
- the kind of repository to createproperties
- the properties to set on the repository
ProvisionException
- if the repository could not be created. Reasons include:

if they do not want the repository manager to remember the repository for subsequent
load attempts.
The flags passed in should be taken as a hint for the type of repository to load. If the manager cannot load a repository that satisfies these hints, it can fail fast.

is supported)monitor
