The Spotlight seem to talk exclusively about talk about searching
metadata. But what about the data itself? When I use Spotlight, it
finds references within the content of documents not just their
metadata.
When writing an importer, what metadata field is used to return the
document content or how does Spotlight search and/or index it? Is it
kMDItemTextContent? Is there a size limit on how large the string
value can or should be?
In my case I have a potentially large relational database of remote
filenames. I'd like the user to be able to search for the filenames
contained within the database using Spotlight. It is reasonable and
proper for me to generate a giant string of all filenames as a value
for kMDItemTextContent? Is there some other way I should go about
doing this?
Thanks
