What do you mean by 7 metadata searches? You mean searching for 7 keywords?
If you pass them in like RAY,CAMDEN then Verity will treat it like an OR
search (I believe, not sure!), so in theory your search would go like this:
1) First do the MD search, this returns records of 1,2,3.
WAIT! I believe I see a bug. It looks like if you ONLY do a text/md search,
you will always get nothing. This is because the code says, first do the
property search, then filter by type/md search. So, since you didn't do a
property search, I bet it's not working at all.
Hmmm, the easiest fix is to do two searches, but I wouldn't use coFind, I'd
use the TypeSearch and MD tags themselves. This will make your search a bit
quicker (which will make up for the time it takes to 'join' the results).
Actually, joining the results is as simple as looping over one list and if
an item doesn't exist in the other list, delete that item.
