Setting Master Index Debug Options
By default, two basic queries are predefined in query.xml, one phonetic and one exact alphanumeric. If the default queries do not meet your query requirements, you can define new queries for the master index application. You can either use an existing query builder class or create a custom query builder by creating a custom plug-in (for more information, see Custom Plug-Ins for Master Index Custom Components in Oracle Java CAPS Master Index User’s Guide).
The changes you make on the Query page of the Configuration Editor are reflected in query.xml. For more information about this file and the configurable query options, see Query Configuration in Oracle Java CAPS Master Index Configuration Reference . If you create a new query to use from the MIDM, make sure to add that query to one of the search definitions in midm.xml. Unless specifically defined for range searching in midm.xml, basic queries use exact searching. No configuration is required in query.xml for basic exact or range searching.
You can create basic queries either through the Configuration Editor or by modifying the XML file directly. Both methods are described here.
The Configuration Editor appears.
The Query page appears.
The Basic Query Builder dialog box appears.
The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.
Make sure the new element is created outside of any existing query-builder elements.
For example:
<query-builder name="PHONETIC-SEARCH" class= "com.sun.mdm.index.user.CustomQueryBuilder" parser-class= "com.sun.mdm.index.configurator.impl.querybuilder.KeyValueConfiguration" standardize="false" phoneticize="true"> </query-builder>
For example:
<query-builder name="ALPHA-SEARCH" class= "com.sun.mdm.index.querybuilder.BasicQueryBuilder" parser-class= "com.sun.mdm.index.configurator.impl.querybuilder.KeyValueConfiguration" standardize="true" phoneticize="true"> <config> </config> </query-builder>
For example:
<config> <option key="UseWildcard" value="true"/> </config>
Note - For the default basic query, only the UseWildcard parameter is supported. If you create a custom basic query builder, you can use these elements to define additional parameters. For more information, see Master Index Query Builder Dialog Box Fields and XML Elements.
The following table lists and describes the fields on the Basic Query Builder and Blocking Query Builder dialog boxes on the Configuration Editor, along with the corresponding elements and attributes in query.xml.
