Yep you can do that too, with CFCollection. From the on-line help:
CFCOLLECTION
The CFCOLLECTION tag allows you to create and administer Verity collections.
Syntax
<CFCOLLECTION ACTION="CREATE" or "REPAIR" or "DELETE" or "OPTIMIZE" or
"MAP"
COLLECTION="collection_name"
PATH="path_of_verity_directory"
LANGUAGE="English" or "German" or "Finnish" or "French" or "Danish" or
"Dutch" or "Italian" or "Norwegian" or "Portuguese" or "Spanish" or
"Swedish">
ACTION
Required. Specifies the action to perform:
CREATE -- Creates a new collection using the specified path and optionally
specified language.
REPAIR -- Fixes data corruption in the collection.
DELETE -- Destroys the collection.
OPTIMIZE -- Purges and reorganizes data for efficiency.
MAP -- Assigns an alias to an existing Verity collection.
COLLECTION
Required. Specifies a collection name or an alias if the ACTION is MAP.
PATH
Required for CREATE and MAP. Specifies a path to the Verity collection. The
effect of the PATH attribute depends on the ACTION that you specify.
ACTION What happens?
CREATE
CFCOLLECTION creates a directory for the use of Verity. The directory path
is composed of the directory path specified in the PATH attribute with the
name specified in the COLLECTION attribute appended to it. Thus, the full
directory path is "path_name\collection_name\." For example, if the path
name is "C:\Col\," and the collection name is "myCollection," the full
directory path is "C:\Col\myCollection\."
MAP
The MAP action provides a name with which ColdFusion can reference an
existing collection. This name is specified with the COLLECTION attribute.
It is an alias for the collection, which can be used in CFINDEX, and to
re-instate a collection after you have re-installed ColdFusion. The
directory path specified with the PATH attribute is the full path name of
the Verity directory. Therefore, to reference the directory created in the
previous example, specify "C:\Col\myCollection\."
LANGUAGE
Optional for CREATE. To use the LANGUAGE attribute you must have the
ColdFusion International Search Pack installed. Valid entries are:
English (default)
German
Finnish
French
Danish
Dutch
Italian
Norwegian
Portuguese
Spanish
Swedish
Usage
CFCOLLECTION works at the collection level only. To add content to a
collection, use CFINDEX.
Note the following regarding mapped collections:
Mapping allows you to assign an alias to a Verity collection created by a
tool other than ColdFusion.
The ACTION, COLLECTION, and PATH attributes are required.
The path must point to a valid Verity collection; mapping does not validate
the path.
Deleting a mapped collection unregisters the alias; the base collection is
not deleted.
