DataSource2 Class

DataSource2 provides a way for data source indexing applications to obtain information about each document that is indexed, and provides better support for indexing binary data than DataSource.

public abstract class DataSource2 implements com.dtsearch.engine.DataSource;

Remarks

If an IndexJob.dataSourceToIndex is based on DataSource2 instead of DataSource, then on each call to getNextDoc, the application can call getWordCount, getDocId, and getTypeId to obtain information on the previously-indexed document.

Additionally, the data source can return binary data (such as document files) using setDocBytes() without the need to create a temporary file.

getDocId	Each time getNextDoc() is called, getDocId() will return the doc id of the last document indexed.
getDocTypeId	Each time getNextDoc() is called, getDocTypeId() will return an integer identifying the file type of the last document indexed
getDocWordCount	Each time getNextDoc() is called, getDocWordCount() will return the number of words in the last document indexed
haveDocBytes
setDocBytes	Use setDocBytes to provide an array of bytes for dtSearch to use as the binary contents of this document.
