Many thanks for your prompt replies.  I can't find anything to do with DASL in my 
version of slide (latest production release, i.e. 1.0.16), and I don't have time to be 
compiling migrating to Slide2.  Can I still use DASL?  DASL is definitely something I 
will talk about in my report, but my simple search mechanism is based on properties, 
not actual text content (at the moment).  Does DASL support this kind of simplicity?

I have nearly constructed my 'PROPFIND > compare > score' system, all I really need is 
some hints about how I can iterate through the entire store.  If DASL can do this, and 
I am able to get it without too much time-wasting then cool.  Otherwise, does anyone 
have some hints about parent-independent iteration?

Sorry if I am asking basic questions... I don't think I am alone in being largely 
unable to establish what my options are with Slide... the docs and literature seem to 
lag so far behind.  I remain enthusiastic however, and I am nearly finished!

Kind regards
stuart

Hi, 

I'd suggest to use DASL. There is a generic implementation within the slide 
kernel.

Subject: Search facility - document iterator 


I am implementing a search facility for my doc store, and I would like to 
know what are people's thoughts on the best way to iterate through the store 
(doing PROPFINDs on each doc as it goes). Obviously you can check if each 
resource is a collection, and tif so, then enumerate its children (as the 
webdav servlet does when doing directory listings)... but I don't just want 
to look at the children of one collection, I want to look at every 
(non-collection) node i.e. document. Is there some kind of 'depth' flag... 
or some other way of basically saying 

while (moreDocsInStore) { 
String currentResource = (String) resources.nextElement(); 

while (moreQueryKeys) { 
String prop = currentResource.getProperty(foo); 
//do some checks against query keys, and give it a hit score 
} 
} 

I know the logic to do everything except the iteration thu each doc 
regardless of its parent. Any help would be much appreciated. 

Regards 
stu
