I've been having issues within CF7 with getting Verity to index and
search Japanese. I note that you can download language packs from
Macromedia (www.macromedia.com/go/verity
<http://www.macromedia.com/go/verity> ) (the instructions for these btw
specify the wrong file location, also the file sizes are completely
wrong). So I've installed the Asian pack, created a collection and
attempted to search it. The results returned are all question marks,
indicating a character encoding issue to me. If I try <cfcollection
action="LIST"...> it looks like Verity is using the Shift_JIS character
set. I never asked for that -- I'm using Unicode.
 
I think the "multilanguage" pack includes support for the "Unicode"
language -- leaving aside that Unicode isn't a language. I'll have to
download that from home later as we pay through the nose for office
bandwidth, so I haven't tested this out yet. 
 
Can anybody confirm that this is the way to search Unicode data with
Verity? It seems to me that the Verity CF docs are in an appalling state
with regard to languages. My second question then is, does Verity not
apply any special intelligence to languages like Japanese or does that
only apply with the Japanese "locale" and the Shift JIS character set?
The advantages of using Verity at all for Japanese are hard for me to
see. 
 
Advice anybody?
