Hi all,
First off, let me say that I've been using PyLucene for a while in
EClass and Documancer, two other wxPython apps, and it works
great. :-) Now I'm trying to accomplish something a bit different and
I have some questions that perhaps someone here may be able to answer.
Basically, what I want to do is to create a light-weight web CGI
program for browsing and searching collections of files. Basically
you could browse items via a table of contents, or perform a search
(implemented via PyLucene) and then click on query results. Nothing
too fancy. I want to be able to run it from a CD-ROM as well as web
site, which is why I don't just use PHP or something like that.
I already know PyLucene+HttpServer+PyMeld (with wxPython for a basic
server GUI on CD-ROM) can be used in general to build this sort of
thing, but my question is specifically in terms of Linux web server
support. I'd like to have the CGI be able to run on a fair number of
common modern Linux distros, e.g. the FedoraCore series. As a result,
I'd like the C++ ABI to be compatible to what FC1 was built with,
which appears to be gcc3.3. My question is - is this a pipe dream or
is this something feasible? I tried building PyLucene 2.0rc1 on FC1
and I ended up getting this error when trying to compile release/
lucene.jar.o:
error: class 'java.lang.String' has no method named 'matches'
matching signature '(Ljava/lang/String;)Z'
This seems to be the only error, though. There's also a ton of
"exception handler inside code that is being protected" warnings.
So does anyone know if it would be possible or a lot of work to get
PyLucene compiled and running using the gcc 3.2/3.3 C++ ABI? I see
back when PyLucene used Lucene 1.3, gcc/gcj3.3 was used but those are
the very first builds, and I've never worked with anything below the
0.9 series of releases, so I'd like to avoid going back that far.
Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Kevin
