Location of Text
The basic prerequisite for a text query application is a text table that is populated with your document collection. The text table is required for indexing.
When you create a CONTEXT index, populate rows in your text table with one of the following elements. CTXCAT and CTXRULE indexes support only the first method.
-
Text information (Documents or text fragments. By default, the indexing operation expects your document text to be directly loaded in your text table.)
-
Path names of documents in your file system
-
URLs of web documents
