TextServer Manifest

Initial Considerations

• Installation of sample texts is optional
• Decide where the sample texts are to be stored
• Ensure that there is sufficient disk space for the texts
• Decide which texts you wish to install and index
• Decide how you wish to index these texts
• Visual C++ will be required to compile sample source code

Directory Layout

The default location for all TextServer related files is under ~/program files/TextServer. Within this directory the following directories can be found:

asp	Sample ASP scripts
catalogs	Location of symbolic links to catalogs
ddl	DDL necessary to create the sample catalog
debug	Debug versions of all software
dml	Sample DML
webpub	Sample web pages employing TextServer
Logs	A writable directory for TextServer logs
MSDASDK	Redistributable software provided by Microsoft
release	Release versions of all software
source	Sample source for some parts of TextServer
texts	The default location for sample texts

Note that the current version of Microsoft's Data Access Software Development Kit (MSDASDK) should be obtained directly from Microsoft, since anything distributed with TextServer may no longer be current.

Executables

Each of these executables should be present in both the Debug and the Release Directory.

isamu.exe	Isam file management utility
call_oledb.exe	Simple OLE/DB client software
comments.exe	Utility to comment a text grammar
sgmltoxml.exe	SGML to XML transducer
indexer.exe	Text Indexer

Dynamic Linked Libraries

Each of these dll's should be present in both the Debug and the Release Directory.

dcQms2Oledb.dll	TextServer OLE/DB Service Provider
dcQsm2Locale.dll	Default/replacable tokenizing method
sp134.dll	Public domain software provided by James Clark

Sample Source Code

call_oledb	Source code for call_oledb
syntax	Language syntax files
dcQsm2Locale	Source code for default tokenizing object
section	Sample code used to add markup to text

Sample Texts

Each sample text and all supporting files (eg. DTD's etc.) is stored in a separate directory under texts. Each directory contains a DOS batch file which will reindex the corresponding text, using the specified parameters.
