Xapian .lemony files

Hi All,

I wanted to add a small tweak to my installation of the Query Parser.
Should I be editing queryparser.lemony? I tried that and the make
didn't include my change. I applied the same change to
queryparser_internal.cc and it worked fine. Is the .lemony file
something used internally and I can ignore? Or do I need to run
something prior to make to convert the files?

Thanks,
Mike Boone.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you need to
run configure with the --enable-maintainer-mode flag to have the .lemony
file translated into the .cc file when building.

I think the .lemony is the correct place to make your changes, otherwise
they will be overwritten when the .cc is regenerated later (ok, if
you're not going to do that, it doesn't matter, but losing the changes
because of forgetting something like that sucks...)

I'm no expert on these things, so take my comments with an appropriate
pinch of salt.

  Best regards,

    Adam

That's right.  If you do that "make" will (re)generate such files when
required.

Sample quickstartindex unable to create database on Windows 2008


Hello

My desktop is running Windows 2008 and I used Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 to compile 1.0.13 Xapian and Ruby
bindings. 
I then copy and paste this code from xapian website to my new project and link it with Xapian lib. Everything
builds and links nicely

http://xapian.org/docs/quickstartindex.cc.html

I ran it with the following args
XapianIndex.exe C:\tmp\junk14 "hello hello" hello 

C:\tmp\junk14 exists and empty.

The app crashed. 

First-chance exception at 0x7771f328 in XapianIndex.exe: Microsoft C++ exception:
Xapian::DatabaseCreateError at memory location 0x006bf9d8..
Unhandled exception at 0x7771f328 in XapianIndex.exe: Microsoft C++ exception:
Xapian::DatabaseCreateError at memory location 0x006bf9d8..
The program '[4800] XapianIndex.exe: Native' has exited with code 0 (0x0).

Has anyone encountered this error before? How can I fix it?

Thanks in advance

And is a directory?  You don't need it to exist, but if it exists and is
a file that won't work.

It seems to have failed to catch the exception, which is pretty broken.
Are you using any unusual compiler options?

And does "simpleindex" in the example work?

Re: Sample quickstartindex unable to create database on Windows 2008


Thanks for your reply.

C:\tmp\junk14 existed. I deleted the dir and XapianIndex.exe still crashes.

I debugged the program and in database.cc in Xapian code line 205 function 
WritableDatabase::WritableDatabase(const std::string &path, int action) : Database ()

'path' variable is preceeded with weird characters, such as so:
"ÌÌÌÌC:\tmp\junk14"

const std::basic_string<char,std::char_traits<char>,std::allocator<char> > &

While it should have read 'C:\tmp\junk14'. 

Thanks for your help.

Martin
