ZCTextIndex is to become the full replacement for old TextIndex. There are a couple of outstanding patches for making the ZCTextIndex splitter, etc. locale friendly. Whether those solve your problem I don't know. We are happy to improve ZCTextIndex for international use, however we at Zope Corp are not authorities in the matter, so we will require some help from those who are. If you can create a collector issue that illustrates the problems you have experienced (perhaps posting some sample content), that we be a great start. -Casey On Thursday 07 November 2002 07:44 pm, Joachim Werner wrote:
Hi!
Currently there are at least three options for doing full text indexing with ZCatalog:
- good old TextIndex - ZCTextIndex - TextIndexNG
TextIndex basically works fine for me and handles German umlauts well (if you use the right locale settings in the Zope start skript), but ZCTextIndex is generally better, except that it does not handle umlauts correctly as far as I can see. So without a bug fix ZCTextIndex is good for US, but not for us ;-)
Then there is Andreas Jung's TextIndexNG, which seems to be really impressive.
What are the plans for Zope 2.6.x/2.7? Will ZCTextIndex be replaced by TextIndexNG?
Does it make sense to get ZCTextIndex fixed (there seems to be a patch in the collector already) or should I go with TextIndexNG? If yes, is it ready for production environments?
Cheers
Joachim
