Category: Search Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None >Priority: 1 Submitted By: Tony Linde (tonylinde) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Lose canned searches Initial Comment: I'd like to lose all the canned searches but still retain the history feature of the menu. I tried moving all the xml files out of the searches directory (except configure.xml) and that dropped all the canned stuff but also lost all the history and any search then failed with 'An error ([object Error]/Object expected) occurred while trying to run the search "gg"'. Not sure if this is a bug or a feature. If no-one is supposed to touch the searches directory, then I'd like a new feature which allows amendment of the canned searches (categories and items). If it is okay to mess around in the searches directory then please see the above bug(s). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Shawn K. Hall (shawnkhall) Date: 2003-11-27 04:52 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=219805 Hi Tony, You cannot remove all 'canned' searches since some of them are required by dqsd itself. "gg" - aka "the google search" - for example, is the 'default search', and unless you at least change this default search you will not be able to delete that file without receiving errors. If you're wanting to disable searches that you do not intend to use you can do so very easily by typing "?" (without the quotes) into DQSD and unchecking the boxes next to the searches you do not want enabled. If you're really wanting to physically remove as many searches as possible you can delete all the files in the searches directory except for: anywho.xml (used for autodetection of phone numbers) curr.xml (used for autodetection of currency conversions) gg.xml (the default search) qsfind.xml (provides the help-system interface) These are defined in the def() function in search.htm and the defer_tools.js file if you want to completely eliminate reliance on those as well. After that - you'll need to edit the aliases.txt and localaliases.txt files under the install directory to remove any aliases to searches that are no longer in use. Aliases are essentially shorter references to existing searches or specialized parameterizations of existing searches - in either case, if the search that it references does not exist you will receive an error. The left side of the pipe is the alias, the right side is the search behaviour, the first few characters of which is the search reference it relies on. For example: -|fst Relies on the fst.xml file. Would you mind if I as what the point is? Why would you want to delete all of the searches? Wouldn't it be easier to simply uninstall DQSD via add/remove programs? ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kim Gr�sman (kimgrasman) Date: 2003-11-27 04:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=551308 gg.xml *is* the default search (Google), so it must be preserved for DQSD to do any searching. curr.xml handles the currency conversion aliased by USD>SEK, so if you need that alias, you should leave that as well. I'm not entirely clear on what further "hard-coded" dependencies there are. As for the history, I don't know. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=432066&aid=850134&group_id=42081 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
