DIMSEARCH_CONFIG

A DIMSEARCH_CONFIG element sets up the configuration of standard and managed attributes for value searches. Value searches search against the text collection that consists of the names of all the attribute values in the data set.

Format

<!ELEMENT DIMSEARCH_CONFIG (COMMENT?, PARTIAL_MATCH?)>
<!ATTLIST DIMSEARCH_CONFIG
   FILTER_FOR_ANCESTORS     (TRUE | FALSE)   "FALSE"
   RELRANK_STRATEGY         CDATA            #IMPLIED
>

Attributes

The DIMSEARCH_CONFIG element has the following attributes.

FILTER_FOR_ANCESTORS

When set to TRUE, the results of a value search return only the highest ancestor attribute value. This means that if both bike clothes and bike vests match a search query for "bike" and FILTER_FOR_ANCESTORS is set to true, only the bike clothes attribute value is returned. When set to FALSE, then both attribute values are returned. The default value is FALSE.

RELRANK_STRATEGY

Specifies the name of a relevance ranking strategy for value search.
