* $log now retries a partial write, or one interrupted by a system call.
* cgiparams.html: Note the technique of using a stub database file to allow a
default of searching over multiple databases.
* omindex:
+ Add support for indexing Microsoft Office 2007 formats and XPS files
(bug#290).
+ Fix the extraction of metadata from OpenDocument formats.
+ Fix "-l" which would previously always cause a segmentation fault if used
("--depth-limit" wasn't affected).
* Fix to compile when RLIMIT_AS isn't available (as on NetBSD and OpenBSD).
Instead use RLIMIT_VMEM or RLIMIT_DATA if either is available, else don't try
to limit the memory the filter process can use.
Omega 1.0.10 (2008-12-23):
build system:
* This release now uses newer versions of the autotools (autoconf 2.62 ->
2.63; automake 1.10.1 -> 1.10.2). The newer autoconf fixes a regression
in autoconf 2.62 (and so Omega 1.0.7) with detecting the endian-ness of some
platforms.
Omega 1.0.9 (2008-10-31):
documentation:
* docs/overview.html: Document HTML parsing a bit, including robots
meta and htdig_noindex.
omega:
* omega: Catch std::exception and report what its what() method returns.
* omega: Remove undocumented and non-functional support for numeric sorting
via CGI parameter SORT=#<slot> (SORT=<slot> works as before).
build system:
* configure: Sync warning flag handling changes from xapian-core to eliminate
many warnings from GCC 4.3.
Omega 1.0.8 (2008-09-04):
documentation:
* Fix a few typos and improve wording in a few places.
indexers:
* omindex:
+ If the character encoding is specified using <meta http-equiv=...> in an
HTML document then reparse the document if it isn't the encoding we're
already using so that any preceding <title> is converted correctly
(bug#292).
+ Convert text from meta tag parameters to UTF-8 (bug#293).
+ Handle <meta charset="..."> (new in HTML 5).
+ Fix bug in HTML tag parameter parsing which was probably just a small
performance penalty in real world cases, but could perhaps result in
parsing bogus extra parameters in carefully contrived situations.
portability:
* Add missing <signal.h>, noted on FreeBSD by Henrik Brix Andersen.
Each database is created and updated separately using either omindex
or scriptindex. You can search these databases (or any other Xapian
database with suitable contents) via a web front-end provided by
omega, a CGI application. A search can also be done over more than
one database at once.
