That's a nice option, but the default should be to search all languages I think. People are used to just type a word without setting another option.

Re: Find identical files

We don't do anything with md5sums right now because that's an expensive operation that can take quite a while on large files. Java Lucene actually has a similarity search in its contrib section. It doesn't only find duplicates but also similar files which might also be useful. I don't know if this has been ported to .NET.

Re: RoadMap for next Beagle releases

I also thought that Lucene queried the index in the DB why would it need one disk access per document? Because the documents, i.e. the stored fields like e.g. title are usually scattered all over the disk. If you only need the IDs, those disk accesses are not required. But as you usually want to display something and the IDs are not stable (they can change when documents are added etc) the ID is usually not enough. But that is the Lucene point-of-view, I'm not familiar with with the layers added by Beagle.

Re: Matching partial strings?
On Dienstag 27 Juni 2006 04:24, Adrian Sai-wah Tam wrote: Actually, I agree that having partial string match is difficult (in terms of computational complexity) and not possible due to performance reasons. Lucene can do these kind of queries, using the WildcardQuery class. Just note that at least the Java version of Lucene doesn't accept * as the first character when using QueryParser, but creating a WildcardQuery like *foo* using the API works. However, this is slow. Faster solutions have been discussed on the Lucene mailing list, using a special way to rotate terms. regards Daniel -- http://www.danielnaber.de ___ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
