[Zope-dev] using ZODB/Catalog outside of Zope - What am I doing wrong?

[Roman Milner]

Hello.  I'm trying to use the ZODB and Catalog out side of zope.  I
have three fields in my class: two FieldIndex and one TextIndex.
Searching on the FieldIndexes works fine but searching on the
TextIndex returns strange results.  Sometimes I get nothing on
something that should hit and other times the wrong result for things
that do hit.

The two scripts are below.  If you try running the search script and
pass it "Second" you will see what I mean.  It will return "First
Test" instead of "Second Test".

Thanks for any help,
^Roman
