Hi all. I've customised my own splitter, which works fine when using a standard (non-globbing) lexicon. I also have a customised index, which is working fine. A problem arises when I create a vocabulary that uses my splitter and has globbing enabled. When I do this, the vocabulary reports that it is using my splitter and has globbing enabled, but when I index some things it is evident from the contents of the vocabulary that it is using the standard ZopeSplitter, not my splitter. So far I've put a call to zLOG.LOG in the index_object method of my custom index at the point where the splitter is acquired from the lexicon ( splitter=lexicon.Splitter ) and the log entries are showing two distinct splitters getting assigned when I index objects. Here are the log entries: 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x8250218> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x88b1208> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon ;lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x8250218> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x88b1208> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x8250218> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x88b1208> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x8250218> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x88b1208> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x8250218> ------ 2001-08-08T10:15:30 INFO(0) PositionIndex.index_object; splitter assigned from a lexicon; lexicon.Splitter = <Python Method object at 0x88b1208> It looks like maybe my splitter is being assigned but then the default splitter is overwriting it. Anyone got any ideas on how I can fix this? I''ll continue to investigate but I'd appreciate any input :) Thanks. Harry
