Hello All,
It's been a slowish week. Here's what's done:
* Added locks at appropriate regions for Search objects
* The Xesam adaptor now gets hits and caches them. So GetHits() is now
done and implementing the HitsSubtracted event and GetHitData() will
be pretty simple.
* Added cleanup code for
Hello Again,
Here's what I've been up to this week:
* Finished a bit more of the skeleton Xesam API support and checked in
the code (it doesn't install yet, but it does make some conversation
with a Xesam client)
* Reading up on XML Schemas and translating the Xesam Search Language
XML schema to
Hello again,
This week I've achieved the unlikely feat of figuring out how to use
XPathNavigator to work with XML documents. The result is that I have a
parser for the Xesam Query Language that mostly handles the sample
queries that come with the xesam-tools package. I need to list of
fields from t
Hello All,
I'm back again with the progress report for the last two weeks (I was
away for part of last week, including the weekend, so you didn't hear
from me earler).
I've moved the code to support most of the latest changes to the Xesam
API, including a few new methods. The race condition while
Hello All,
Sorry for the delayed report, but it's been a hectic weekend at college.
This week I cleaned out the non-live search mechanism after clarifying
the intended behaviour with the Xesam folks. I still need to make sure
that a blocking search doesn't block the server as a whole. I've also
be
Hello All,
This has been a relatively slow week. I've basically been looking at
three things:
1) Completing the Xesam query parser (supporting multiple fields,
"inSet"). This depends on ...
2) Grouping. It appears that Lucene supports something similar to the
grouping that Xesam requires. I need
Hello All,
I haven't really been able to do much work this week because of all
the procedures and running around involved with the start of a new
semester.
The main thing we've decided this week is that for now we will be
keeping the external adaptor implementation and will consider moving
this in
Hello All,
Sorry about the delay ... here's the update from this week:
With respect to Xesam, the proposal to have a single "field" value per
query (http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/XesamSearchUpdates). There are
some other changes there that I will need to implement if agreed upon,
like blocking s
