Revision history for Perl extension Search::Xapian.
0.9.10.0 Tue Mar 06 02:27:02 2007
[Changes contributed by Rusty Conover]
- Wrap MatchDecider and make it usable with Enquire::get_mset()
- Wrap check_at_least parameter of Enquire::get_mset()
[Changes contributed by Olly Betts]
- Wrap rset parameter of Enquire::get_mset()
- Make all get_mset parameter combinations available via
Enquire::matches()
- Add tests for check_at_least and rset parameters of
Enquire::get_mset()
- Avoid warning from MakeMaker when generating Makefile for linking
against an uninstalled xapian-core tree.
- Correct several errors in the pod documentation for
Search::Xapian::PositionIterator.
0.9.9.1 Mon Dec 11 06:08:57 2006
[Changes contributed by Olly Betts]
- Fix typo in BoolWeight documentation.
- Fix BoolWeight default constructor (broken by changes in 0.9.9.0).
- Wrap TradWeight class.
0.9.9.0 Mon Nov 09 02:31:09 2006
[Changes contributed by Olly Betts]
- Fix the BM25Weight constructors.
- Fix problem with isa not being known in Xapian::PostingIterator.
- Wrap the newly implemented transaction API to WritableDatabase.
0.9.6.0 Sun Jun 04 01:14:00 2006
[Changes contributed by Olly Betts]
- Alex's CPAN email address bounces, so change occurences of it
to direct users to the xapian-discuss mailing list for now.
- Correct several occurrences of "Xapian::Search::" to
"Search::Xapian::".
- Wrap Enquire::set_docid_order (and document set_sort_forward
as deprecated.)
- Wrap new method Enquire::set_sort_by_relevance_then_value.
- Document Enquire::set_sort_by_* (and document set_sorting as
deprecated.)
- Wrap the BM25Weight constructor which takes parameters
(the default one is much less useful, since Xapian defaults
to BM25Weight with the default parameters anyway!)
- Wrap Enquire::set_sort_by_value_then_relevance()
- Wrap the optional flags parameter to QueryParser::parse_query().
- Disable the wrappers for the transaction API to WritableDatabase
- it's not implemented by any database backend yet, so it's not
useful to wrap it at present.
- Fix PostingIterator != and == to handle both other PostingIterators
and numbers like PositionIterator does.
- Wrap constants FLAG_BOOLEAN_ANY_CASE and FLAG_WILDCARD.
- Fix typos and other problems in the POD documentation. Document all
constants.
- Update the list of unwrapped classes and methods.
- Update the version in the README file. Add code to Makefile.PL
to check that the various references to the current version are
all up-to-date.
- Makefile.PL now refuses to proceed if it can't find Xapian.
- Makefile.PL now checks that the Xapian version and Search::Xapian
version match, and if not issues a non-fatal warning (for now).
- Makefile.PL now allows building against an uninstalled xapian-core
tree (which is useful when doing development work on Search::Xapian
itself).
- Add feature test for Document::termlist_begin().
[Changes contributed by Tim Brody]
- Add MANIFEST.SKIP to allow "make manifest".
0.9.2.4 Fri Feb 15 14:59:23 2006
[Changes contributed by Olly Betts and Tim Brody]
- Catch C++ exceptions from QueryParser and rethrow them as Perl
exceptions.
- Makefile.PL now checks environmental variable CXX for the C++
compiler to use.
- Fixed cross-wired methods inside Enquire::get_matching_terms_begin
and Enquire::get_matching_terms_end (thanks to Arne Georg Gleditsch
for reporting this).
- $q = Query(op, @termlist) now handles terms with embedded zero bytes.
- Removed Query::clone() and = overload - they would die if ever used
and aren't useful since a Query object is essentially immutable once
constructed.
- Removed MSet::max_size - C++ only has it so MSet works as an STL
container.
- RSet::size() returns doccount not termcount (though they're currently
the same type underneath so this is an aesthetic internal change).
- Wrap most of the changed Xapian::QueryParser API.
- Wrap new SimpleStopper class (with test cases).
- Added PerlStopper class which can be subclassed in Perl to implement
your own stop word algorithm.
- Wrap new Enquire sorting API methods.
- Updated list of unwrapped classes and methods in documentation.
- Make != and == work for comparing iterators (as well as ne and eq).

- Corrected module names advertised in the POD.
- Added new_term method to Search:Xapian::Query.

[Changes contributed by Olly Betts]
- Fixed handling of optional parameters in Document::add_posting(),
Document::add_term(), Document::remove_posting(),
Enquire::set_cutoff(), Enquire::set_sorting(), and
QueryParser::set_stemming_options(). Added test cases for
the first three.
- Fixed wrapping of Enquire::get_matching_terms_begin() and
get_matching_terms_end().
- Wrap versions of RSet::add_document(), RSet::remove_document(), and
RSet::contains() which take MSetIterator instead of a docid.
0.8.3.0 Tue Oct 27 20:32:36 2004
[Changes contributed by Olly Betts]
- Fixed exporting of DB_* constants.
- Makefile.PL now checks environmental variable XAPIAN_CONFIG.

- Wrap missing ESet methods: back().
- Fixed wrapping of ESetIterator methods: ==, !=.
- Wrap 3 argument form of Enquire::set_sorting().

- Database::get_doccount(), get_avlength(), and get_termfreq()
now return values correctly

- Added overloaded function for TermIterator class
- Wrapped all methods for Xapian::Enquire (except
set_weighting_scheme, which is passed a Weight object - a
class for which wrappers do not yet exist).

in Enquire.pm with two separate methods (it was preventing
attempts to call unwrapped methods from throwing errors).

now autogenerates a query object with the arguments passed
