javax.help.search.package.html Maven / Gradle / Ivy
Supports simple access to search engines. JavaHelp supports a
standard full-text search view and navigator. The view interacts
with a search engine through this package. The reference
implementation provides a search engine that implements these
interfaces, but others can also be used--the specific search engine
is part of the information specified in the search view. This separation
provides full-text search functionality while not imposing specific
formats. These details are encapsulated in a search engine type.
HelpSearch
is an abstract base class for the search
engines, SearchQuery
obtained from it can be used to
perform the actual queries. Individual items found by a search are
SearchItem
s which can be fired as
HelpEvent
s.
The creation of search databases is done by subclasses of the
abstract class IndexBuilder
based on the MIME type of
each document being indexed. Details of the index building process
can be given through instances of ConfigFile
.
Note: Registration of IndexerKits should probably be visible
in this package.
