Package: xapian-examples (0.9.9-1)

Xapian simple example programs

This package contains source code for some example programs which use the Xapian library. The three "simple" examples are also included in binary form; binaries for the other examples can be found in the xapian-tools package (since they're useful tools in their own right).

The Xapian search engine library is a highly adaptable toolkit to allow developers to easily add advanced indexing and search facilities to their own applications. It implements the probabilistic model of information retrieval, and provides facilities for performing ranked free-text searches, relevance feedback, phrase searching, boolean searching, stemming, and simultaneous update and searching. It is highly scalable, and is capable of working with collections containing hundreds of millions of documents.
