When I compile xapian in windows xp, the following error occurs.

Hi all, A few of us have been discussing whether we should have a Xapian social gathering of some kind. The current idea is meeting up in a pub in London some time in autumn for drinks and food. However all of this really depends on who might be able to come! It would be a chance to meet other Xapian enthusiasts in an informal social setting and talk about all things search-related (and

Hi all, I've been asked to prepare a comparison of Lucene/Solr and Xapian and I'm trying to find some differences between the two. I'm not that familiar with Lucene myself but I expect there are lots of people who will have looked at both before ending up on this mailing lists. Can anyone help? I'm looking for both differences between the two systems and perhaps the reasons

(following my mail in xapian-discuss on 11.06) I revisited my resource file and came up with a much simpler solution. I'm now using the new version.h file (no need to duplicate version strings) and add php-src to the include path given to rc.exe so I can get the precise php version. On my windows, the resulting dll appears as "Xapian 1.0.1 bindings for PHP 5.2.2" Here is what I

I've been toying with the idea of using gkermit over an ssh connection. As it stands, gkermit is essentially featureless, a GPL kermit implementation that's enough to get the Free software advocated off their backs. However, since they want to continue to sell C-Kermit, it has all the `useful' features, such as scripting, but more importantly the ability to create a connection over

Hiya, I'm working on updating the MSVC build files for 0.9.8 (I've been assuming that it's not worth doing this for 0.9.7). One small problem; we can't build the remote backend in this environment because the network code is waay too Unixy. Thus I'm getting a problem building some of the tests; specifically test_serialisedoc1() and test_serialiselength1() in

Hi all, http://www.flax.co.uk/xapian_binaries is now working after a brief glitch due to a website update - sorry! Cheers Charlie

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

hi all: I copied over a windows MSTSC.exe and ran the remote desktop, it gave me a small window for the IP address, then after the successful connection, it shows me the (full screen ) XP login interface, weir thing is, it loses mouse / keyboard focus now, so I can't type in anything, neither can I close the window, the focus is still on the background (gnome) desktop, so I could press

Hi all, I've just seen a great article in PHP Architect all about Xapian, written by Marco Tabini who set up the BeebleX PHP search site. "..This level of specialization has allowed the developers of Xapian to implement some features that, for a lack of a more technical term, can only be defined as "extremely cool":.....' It's a great introduction to Xapian and how

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

Hi all, I'm getting an error in the smoketest. I'm using latest Swig and Python bindings from SVN-HEAD: File "smoketest.py", line 23, in <module> import xapian File "C:\work\xapian\xapian-SVN\xapian-core\win32\Release\Python\xapian.py", line 2099, in <module> ValueRangeProcessor.__call__ = ValueRangeProcessor.__call AttributeError: type

Hi all, We've started a local networking group - as this will cover Xapian, I thought it might be of interest. http://www.meetup.com/Enterprise-Search-Cambridge-UK/calendar/16034930/ As I imagine it's too far to travel for many of you, other groups are linked from http://searchmeetups.com/ - some cover Xapian-related topics (i.e. the London Open Source Search Social).

Hi all, Just to say we've now got the PHP bindings working on Windows (committed to SVN-HEAD). It's not a particularly painless process, but it is possible. Thanks to Daniel Menard for his support of this project. Cheers Charlie Lemur

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";

Hi all, There's been a lot of changes to Omega recently and the Windows build wasn't working; I've attached a patch which should fix this. It's mainly a lot of changes to use the "safe..." versions of header files. Cheers Charlie -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...

Hi all, Attached is a simple patch for Flint and Quartz; Visual C++ complains if you try and define arrays with non-constant size.
