IDKSM Search Engine (version 1.0) IDKSM is a full text search engine designed to work with HTML files. It consists of an Indexer that process the HTML files and creates a database. It uses runtime engines to access this database for doing keyword searches. It does boolean searches which returns a hit list of files that contain the words being searched. This hit list consists of the Title of the HTML document and the path+filename of the file in question. The runtime engine is available as a .dcu file and can be used in any manner you see fit. I have included a sample application that uses the .dcu along with a precompiled database to see it in action. It was originally designed to be used with Java and a standard web browser. The Java version of the runtime engine is also included in the release. It is a Java 1.0.2 applet that works with any Java aware browser. A sample Java setup is included as well. The Delphi version was written to be used with Dave Bear's THTMLViewer component. I have created several products using this layout with great success. Future versions of the Indexer will be designed to work directly with standard text files so that you can use components other then HTML components. In fact you can currently get around this now if you first index HTML version of your content. Then you can change the actual file the database points to to be anything you wish. A file with Rich Text or whatever and handle the processing of this text in whatever way you wish. The only part of the HTML file that is needed is the Title tag found in the Header of the HTML file. The Indexer is shareware but the runtime engines are royalty free. The shareware version of the Indexer is fully functional but will only process 10 files. The registered version will work with as many files as you wish. I have created products that used 2,000 files with no problems.
