Hi,
some words to Windows Vista Search. Within Vista it should be possible to search documents by it's content. So, if there exist a word like 'supercallifragilisti' ;-) in a document A, you are able to search for 'supercalli' and in the result list you will get the document A.

First, open:
Control Panel (Classic View)->Indexing Options->(Button)Advanced->(Tab page)File types
on this page, mark 'Index Properties and File Contents'
leave the dialog by 'ok' press Advanced again and do a 'Rebuild' and press ok, take a good coffee ;-)

This doesn't work as expected. Within Windows XP it works well.


With OOo there exist some shell extensions in project shell. The DLL ooofiltproxy.dll and ooofilt.dll. The first DLL loads ooofilt.dll via LoadLibraryEx. This is a need because we need some more libraries out of the program directory.

In the ooofilt.dll is the code for desktop search implemented. At the moment OOo only supports the IPersistFile Interface.
After some debug sessions and extra code implementation I found out:
A QueryInterface is called from shell32.dll (Microsoft) and try to use the IPersistStream interface, if it is implemented, it queries to ICallFactory interface, if it is implemented, it calls IFilter::Init() from IFilter interface, but with wrong parameters. Only a catch of exception tripple dot can hold us. I try also to fix the wrong parameters by simple good ones but this also doesn't help. Therefore the IFilter implementation (desktop search) doesn't work at the moment.

IPersistFile is not used within Windows Vista at the moment.

This tests has done with Vista RC1 && RC2 && Final.

BugID is i71112
