thesaurus document

This document configures the thesaurus for your application.

The thesaurus allows the system to return matches for related concepts to words or phrases contained in user queries.

The default thesaurus document does not define any thesaurus entries:

<THESAURUS/>

Sample thesaurus document

This example sets two thesaurus entries:

<THESAURUS>
  <THESAURUS_ENTRY>
    <THESAURUS_FORM>italy</THESAURUS_FORM>
    <THESAURUS_FORM>italian</THESAURUS_FORM>
  </THESAURUS_ENTRY>
  <THESAURUS_ENTRY>
    <THESAURUS_FORM>france</THESAURUS_FORM>
    <THESAURUS_FORM>french</THESAURUS_FORM>
  </THESAURUS_ENTRY>
</THESAURUS>

Request structure text

When you configure the WebServiceClient component, you add the following request text in the Edit request structure dialog:

<config-service:configTransaction 
  xmlns:config-service="http://www.endeca.com/MDEX/config/services/types/1/0">
<config-service:OuterTransactionId>"${OUTER_TRANSACTION_ID}</config-service:OuterTransactionId>
<config-service:putConfigDocuments  
  xmlns:mdex="http://www.endeca.com/MDEX/XQuery/2009/09">
<mdex:configDocument name="thesaurus">
<THESAURUS>
  $xmlString
</THESAURUS>
</mdex:configDocument>
</config-service:putConfigDocuments>
</config-service:configTransaction>

The name="thesaurus" attribute references the thesaurus document. Note that the OuterTransactionId element is not needed if the operation is not running within an outer transaction.
