Hi Stuart, Thanks for the information! Our library is interested in depositing license restricted materials for some departments and intends to open certain documents only to certain groups and make them full text searchable to those groups. How will the license/access restriction affect full text indexing? (Is DSpace a fit system for this purpose?) I saw your jspui example of full text search results highlighting, will the full text configuration patch work for xmlui as well? If it'll be built into future release, which version will it be included possibly?
Thank you for your time to look at the questions!

Will it meet the > expectation of search within documents? Full-text indexing and searching of PDFs / HTML docs / Word docs is available within DSpace. If you run the following script, it will generate these indexes: - http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch08.html#N1605F - [dspace]/bin/dspace filter-media The current version of DSpace does not show snippets of text in the search results to indicate where in the full text the search string was found. This is possible, and we have an open ticket in our development tracking system to address this: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-172 Thanks, Stuart Lewis IT Innovations Analyst and Developer Te Tumu Herenga The University of Auckland Library Auckland Mail Centre, Private Bag 92019, Auckland 1142, New Zealand Ph: +64 (0)9 373 7599 x81928 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech
