Subject: Determining If a Collection Exists?
> Hello all,
>
> I ran into an annoying little bug. I have to provide full text searching
of
> pdf documents for my client. These pdf's are associated with a specific
> content object type and are all stored in the same directory. So the way
> I've decided to deal with this is to create a new collection called
'mypdfs'
> and point it at the directory housing all the pdfs. I can return the
> filename and then return the corresponding objects based on a filename
> property search.
>
> I created a little utility for the client to manage the collection and I
> don't want the user to get errors if they accidentally try to create the
> collection after the initial creation. Can anyone describe how you
determine
> if a collections exists? I know I could do a CFDIRECTORY, but is there a
> more direct way?
>
> Also, if it seems that my method of indexing these pdfs is not the best
way,
> could you suggest a better method?
