I don't want to get into a debate that involves slamming source forge. They provide a great service. However to answer your question: 1. Reliable downloads. They don't always seem to complete. 2. An orgainized tree stucture into available apps 3. A nicer presentation. GUI look and feel is very gooy. 4. Sloppy forums. Answers to questions take a long time or never. Look and feel is ugly. I guess lack of forum organization. Notification of answered questions is not there. Or doesn't appear to be.
On the other hand, it's much better than nothing. Back to the problem of (too many files open): I'm really having difficulty recompiling all the java routines in the program that I have. Being new to Java, it's probably just my inexperience, but I hope to be able to get this done soon. Though any help along these lines would be greatly appreciated. Specifically, inside the Index.java file is a call to: iw = new IndexWriter(di.indexerPath, new StandardAnalyzer(), false); iw.setUseCompoundFilter(true); I added the 2nd line per recommendation earlier on this topic. In trying to recompile the Index.java file I get following errors: Index.java:125: cannot resolve symbol symbol : method didParse () location: class PdfToText else if (pp.didParse()) { ^ Index.java:352: cannot resolve symbol symbol : method setUseCompoundFilter (boolean) location: class org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter iw.setUseCompoundFilter(true); ^ Index.java:444: cannot resolve symbol symbol : method setUseCompoundFilter (boolean) location: class org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter iw.setUseCompoundFilter(true); ^ ./EmailThread.java:2: package javax.mail does not exist import javax.mail.*; ^ ./EmailThread.java:3: package javax.mail.internet does not exist import javax.mail.internet.*; ^ ./WordToText.java:5: package org.apache.poi.hdf.extractor does not exist import org.apache.poi.hdf.extractor.WordDocument; ... and it keeps going to about 58 errors. Hey it was peaking out over 100, so I'm making some improvement. Any help would be appreciated. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/26/2004 12:16:13 PM >>> As PDFBox is an all Java solution there is no specific linux/unix version. The source that is available with the downloaded package should suit your needs. What does the sourceforge site not provide for you?
