Xapian discuss - Oct 2008 - How to install the bindings Java of Xapian on Windows?

Hi.

I'm a new user of the Xapian Project and I want to install the Java version
on Windows but I can't find any documentation who can help me... Can you
help me??

Thank you.

Justine.

Seriously. We're nearing going live to replace dtSearch, except that
searching for pretty much anything gives a regular result, but for some reason
the word "blue" by itself gives an error. Searching "red
blue" is OK, "blue red" is OK, "brown",
"basket", and "yellow" are fine... just "blue" so
far. If you could have a look, or if you know that "blue" is a special
word somehow, please let me know. The URL is
http://cowichan.library.ubc.ca/cgi-bin/omega?P=&DB=calendars2 .

Thanks...

It's pretty big (index folder is 190M). I just ran xapian-check on it 
and it turns out that it had an error in the B-tree. The oddness is gone 
since I rebuilt it, but I stupidly erased the old index so I can't help 
out with forensics (unless it happens again, but hopefully it won't).

Thanks,
