Hi Well, the first rough cut of integrated cardfile database and HTML searching now works. Implemented as follows : class SearchEngineResource -> User interface for searching contains... class SearchResultResource -> One for each search request processed, operates on .... interface Searchable -> Provides primitive search functions, implemented by... class SearchDirectoryResource -> Primitive directory searching (linear, no index/cache yuk!) and.... class CardFileResource -> Contains cardfile, implements Searchable So, using one SearchEngineResource (or sub-class it for different interfaces) you can search a resource tree of seachable objects - either directories or cardfiles, and get one combined result back. Next steps, improved interfacing, efficient directory search, better result reporting.
