Hi
Apologies for bringing this mail up again. But I have resolved some of the
issues that I originally started with including composite queries. However
I just have 1 remaining question which I would be grateful if someone could
assist me with.
I have a class whcih performs the creation of the spell index but I'm not
sure where to apply this class. Do I apply this process whenever a user
uploads a new file (kicking off the indexing process). It seems as though
this may not be the most appropriate place as I have one spell index and 4
document indexes. I'm wondering what the general approach is. Also
whenever the indexes change should I clear the spell index and start again?
Once again apologies for bringing this up.
Cheers
Amin
