Does that mean the max. string that can be indexed
and therefore searched on is 500 chars? What exactly
is this limitation?
I may have been wrong on this limit. I know I read
about it somewhere, but I can't seem to find out where
at the moment. Since the fulltext index is maintained
as a seperate b-tree with each word from the record
and its local weight, I am nearly certain I was wrong
in making the 500 char limit assertion (though a
single word is limited to that length).
Can I just add words or append words to the existing
default stopword file? After I add words do I have
to
reindex the fields or restart anything? (I'm using
win32)
You can't modify the default stoplist, but you can
create your own using ft_stopword_file (just include
the words on the default stoplist). If you change the
stopwords you must rebuild your index.
If I insert/add a record to a fulltext table do I
have
to redo(reindex) anything? Assuming I'm using a
recent ver.
of MYSQL.
Fulltext indexes are maintained just as normal indexes
when you insert/update/delete rows. They will
(sometimes greatly) affect the speed of your DML
operations, but no special synching is necessary to
keep them up to date with your table data.
Thanks, just genral questions...thanks.
You are quite welcome.
