Hi,
I can rebuild indexes and recatalog etc, it doesn't change anything. I
don't see how it could change anything...it is a brand new zcatalog
instance. Simply, the ZCatalog is created, the indexes are created, and
the zcatalog is initially empty. Then I create one CatalogAware object,
and it catalogs itself. I can see this object in the catalog, and I can
see the textindexed words in the vocabulary. But when I search for a word
in the vocabulary using a textindex (which obviously belongs to the only
object in the catalog), I get an empty result. The only way I can get a
non empty result it to search for the id of the object or one other
property I have which are indexed as field indexes.
The product I am working on is Etailer. If anyone is kind enough to take a
look, you can download it at http://e-tailer.adriot.net/download.html. The
function that does the search is searchFor(), at line 419 of Etailer.py.
Creating an instance of etailer in 2.1.6 works fine, but creating an
instance of etailer in 2.2.x and the catalog doesn't work.
i am very confused ;-).
