I'm wondering what the intended semantics for the contents of the list returned by QueryParser::stoplist_begin() is. Currently, if a query parser is created, and then used multiple times, the list returned by stoplist_begin() is the list of all terms that have been excluded from any query due to being considered a stoplist. I would have expected it to only return items from the previous

Just a quick note to let the list know that Lemur Consulting are looking for a Python programmer to work with them on Xapian, and some open source projects built on top of Xapian. If you're interested, more details are at: http://www.lemurconsulting.com/Hiring.shtml It's short term to begin with, but you never know! There will need to be a fair bit of face-to-face work to begin with, so being in or near Cambridge (UK) is probably essential. (Reply off-list ideally, to avoid clogging up the list.) -- Richard

Hi all, I've just been sent a build file for the Ruby bindings, and have thus produced a new set of build files, available from the usual place at http://lemurconsulting.com/Products/Xapian/Overview.shtml Huge thanks to Zsolt Sz. Sztup?k for his work on these. Cheers Charlie

...overwriting the old one, is the right way to do stuff, so now I'm looking for a way to make things work as painless as I can. How can I make Xapian::WritableDatabase to release (close) the files it is using? Can I do that via Ruby, or diving into the code is needed? thanks pietro [1] http://lemurconsulting.com/Products/Xapian/Overview.shtml [2] http://github.com/frabcus/acts_as_xapian/tree/master

Hi all, As per subject line. The new build files for 1.0.9 are available from http://lemurconsulting.com/Products/Xapian/Overview.shtml I've not tested these extensively, although they appear to pass the smoke test, so any test reports would be welcome. Cheers Charlie

I've uploaded Xapian 1.0.7, which as usual you can download from: http://xapian.org/download This release fixes an assortment of bugs, and improves efficiency in a few cases. It's intended to be a relatively safe incremental update over 1.0.6. For a more detailed overview see: http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/ReleaseOverview/1.0.7 The full lists of user-visible changes are linked to from

I've uploaded Xapian 1.0.11 (including Search::Xapian 1.0.11.0), which as usual you can download from: http://xapian.org/download Starting from this release, I'm going to include SHA1 checksums of the released files in the release announcement.

I've now got working (but not necessarily policy compliant) debian packages for xapian-core, the xapian python bindings, and omega and omindex. I will be sorting out a public apt repository of these shortly. Is it appropriate to add the debian control files (ie, those files in the debian directories in CVS) to the distribution tarballs? I think yes - they don't take up much space,

Hello, I'm still testing PHP5 bindings and I could'nt find a way to delete all documents from a DB without deleting other informations stored in the DB such as synonyms. Since the process of adding synonyms is time consuming, I would like to use the same DB but restart my test without any document in the DB, is this possibile? I could'nt find a delete_all or a method like that, nor

Hi, I'm confused about my licensing obligation with respect to the Xapian SWIG bindings. I've got a python wrapper that sits above the standard Xapian Python/SWIG bindings, and I wasn't sure if the *intent* of the Xapian team is that my python wrapper - and any code that also uses my wrapper also falls under GPLv2. It seems unclear if the FSF's position on dynamic linking in

Hi, As part of my whole indexing thing, I want to move the databases around, from within the code. So, I figured that the safest bet would be to close the DB before attempting to move it. But there's no Xapian::Database::close() or even Xapian::WritableDatabase::close(). I have a global variable that holds the database, and I open it in the main(): // globals Xapian::WritableDatabase

I'm planning to add multiple-database support for searches to my "Xappy" python wrapper (more on this wrapper later, but for now, see http://code.google.com/p/xappy for details). This is reasonably straightforward, because Xapian supports this nicely: except that "Xappy" generates a "fieldname->prefix" mapping automatically. The prefix which corresponds

Hi, I am looking for Chinese Japanese and Korean tokenizer that could can be use to tokenize terms for CJK languages. I am not very familiar with these languages however I think that these languages contains one or more words in one symbol which it make more difficult to tokenize into searchable terms. Lucene has CJK Tokenizer ... and I am looking around if there is some open source that we
