Hi all, I found that the figure returned by MSet::get_matches_estimated() varies depending on how results are to be sorted. For instance, in my index, value 4 contains date and time in the format "yyyymmddhhmmss". For the same query, the number of results will be estimated to 20000+ when results are first sorted by date and time with set_sort_by_value_then_relevance(4) and to only 100

Hi all, There's been a odd bug reported to us by Daniel Menard while working on the PHP bindings: "I then tried to run the dotest target...All tests passed, except the one about get_matching_terms (smoketest.php line 94). I added this line before the exit: for ($i=0; $i<strlen($terms); $i++) echo $c=ord($terms[$i]), ' ', ($c>31?$terms[$i]:''), "\n";

In other words, is it possible to avoid duplicates if new documents are inserted into the DB by another process in-between ->get_mset calls when reusing Xapian::Enquire objects? I do some expensive processing on each mset window, so I always limit the results to limit heap usage even if I'm planning on going through a big chunk of the DB: $mset = $enq->get_mset(0, 1000);

Hello, is there a way to optimize sorting by certain values for queries which return a huge amount of results? For example, I just want a simple query that gives me the 200 most recent emails out of millions. The elapsed time for get_mset increases as the number of documents ($n * 2000) increases. I suppose I could store a pre-sorted set using SQLite or similar. Thanks in advance for any

I'm currently facing the same problem. I added the libFLAC++ libraries to my MSVC application. I implemented the same quality levels (0-8) as used in the FLAC frontend application. But the resulting files are remarkable different between my application and the FLAC frontend (although using the same settings). for example: FLAC frontend (quality = 8) --------------------------------

The Database object itself effectively does (it works in a snapshot of the state of the database when you open it, or last called reopen() which

Hi there, Just a small suggestion : The following apis could be a bit more concise / shorter / pleasant I thought. This is particularly difficult, my brain stumbles on this each time when scanning thorugh the code :) set_no_auto_load(true) Could it be two apis instead? auto_load no_auto_load and the other one : worker_name :important_worker (no set_ prefix) thanks, emil

The switch to the new metadata system is almost complete. All plugins in the fdo repo except plane and ini have been converted. I'll probably go ahead and convert those plugins as well sometime soon unless the original authors of those plugins tells me not to. The horrible gconf-dump plugin has been removed and replaced by a simple xslt stylesheet. gconf schemas are now generated from the xml

Hi, I'm using xapian with c# and mono and i'm having a segfault in get_weight. When i print the index variable, the value is clearly too high. I think something write over it. Do you have any idea on how i could trace the beginning of the segmentation fault ? Thanks, -- Yann

Hi there, I have a xapian index whose results are being sorted by a value, with (PHP bindings): $enquire->set_sort_by_value($sort_data_value); This is because I want the results returned in chronological order of publication date. However, I now have a need to have certain results be 'sticky' at the top of the resultset, regardless of their publication date. Obviously there are

Hi Attached is a patch that adds aliases to the API for methods that look like attribute accessors. So a_frame.set_title(''The title'') # currently a_frame.title = ''The title'' # now an alternative textctrl.get_value # currently textctrl.value # now an alternative Also, C++ methods named ''IsXXX'' are now exposed in ruby with

Why there still been rank when using Query::MatchAll() ?

Hello, I've installed xapian-core 1.1.3 and xapian-bindings 1.1.4 from the tarballs announced by Olly the other day. With these versions, Enquire.get_mset() seems to consistently be raising xapian.DocNotFoundError. I've attached a small test case which reproduces this. The same test case works fine with 1.0.16 (not the latest 1.0.x, but it's what I had installed). Program output

Hi, is there a way to get the number of all possible matches for a specific query? Some api call like Xapian::doccount Xapian::Enquire::get_number_of_matches(); Best wishes Wilm

Hello, As I know, get_matches_estimated() return an estimate for the number of documents with matches the query. But now, I found it get a disparity between the return value and real mathced number. For an example: the real matched number is 58, but the return value is 458; so when the users click the hinder page, get a blank page ... so they often complain to me. I found that the main reason is

xentrace, setsize and the hypervisor don''t seem to be on the same page. If tracing is not enabled, the hypercall will only allow TBUF_SET_SIZE and TBUF_ENABLE. However, set_size calls TBUF_GET_INFO, and xentrace wants to call TBUF_SET_EVT_MASK and TBUF_SET_CPU_MASK before calling TBUF_ENABLE. I don''t see any reason not to call SET_*_MASK and GET_INFO if tracing is not enabled.

Hello, This is a somewhat idle question about Enquire::get_mset(), possibly based on wrong assumptions on how Xapian works, but I would be grateful if someone satisfied my curiosity. Xapian::MSet Xapian::Enquire::get_mset(Xapian::doccount first, Xapian::doccount maxitems, const Xapian::RSet * omrset = 0, const
