      com.raritantechnologies.searchApp.XMLMemorySearchSourceFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

IXMLSearchSourceFactory

public class XMLMemorySearchSourceFactory

extends XMLSearchSourceFactory

Creates an InMemorySearchSource from an XML source.

Creates a set of IResults by reading XML elements from a set of XML files. The XML elements are identified by an XPath expression in the XML configuration. For each Result, a set of paramName=paramValue pairs is created from all attributes and child tags of the source element.

XML Configuration Template:

  <SourceType name="AMemorySource" type="InMemorySearchSource" 
                 displayName="Some search source"
                 sourceFactoryClass="com.raritantechnologies.searchApp.XMLMemorySearchSourceFactory" 
                 queryProcessor="com.raritantechnologies.searchApp.InMemorySearchSource" >

    <recordPath>/ResultSet/Result</recordPath>

    <Fields>
      <Field ID="[name of field]"  xPath="/where/it/is" />

      <Field ID="[another field]" xPath="/where/this/one/is" />

      <Field ID="[field to filter]"  xPath="/another/xPath" >
        <!--  String filter used to filter values before adding to InMemorySearchSource -->
        <LoadFilter class="[ class of com.raritantechnologies.utils.filter.IStringFilter ]" >
           <!-- Configuration properties of this type of StringFilter -->
        </LoadFilter>

        <!-- String filter used to filter query values when searching InMemorySearchSource -->
        <SearchFilter class="[ class of com.raritantechnologies.utils.filter.IStringFilter ]" >
           <!-- Configuration properties of this type of StringFilter -->
        </SearchFilter>
      </Field>

      <!-- etc. . . -->
