Peter splits in the name, not just the path. Are your sure? The Managable PathIndex splits a string string at '/' (alternatively it takes a sequence) and indexes the result in a way to support quite efficiently subpath searches. Thus, it is applicable, if filename-splitting means splitting at /' (or you use some arbitrary splitting beforehand) *AND* (more importantly) if one is interested in subpath queries. If the second condition is not given, as KeywordIndex may do as well (again a Managable KeywordIndex would allow the splitting to be formulated as a normalizer). -- Dieter ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Has anything like this been done before? Am I on the right track? Do you see any pitfalls? I used a similar approach when we had to enable people to search for products based on name. So splitting on caMel and digits was done too. Additionally I had a stopword list in my case (to catch A4 P3 and so on) For filenames I guess you dont need this. ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
