dtSearch™ announces version 6.4 of the dtSearch™ product line.

Along with the Spider enhancements, dtSearch™ Web adds new options to the set-up wizard's search form generation, such as easy date range control, automatic generation of field searching controls, and stylesheet-based search form and search results formatting. dtSearch™ Publish uses a version of dtSearch Web on its CD/DVDs, along with a mini HTTP server. The result is instantly searchable CD/DVDs that run with zero footprint. Because dtSearch™ Publish also uses dtSearch Web, the search form enhancements also apply to CD/DVD generation.

The dtSearch™ Text Retrieval Engine, available in both Win & .NET and Linux versions, currently supports SQL, Delphi, Java, C++, C++.NET, C#, VB.NET and ASP.NET. The new version adds a new native .NET sample application for indexing and searching any database accessible via ADO.NET. The new version also includes Java API enhancements.

In addition, the entire dtSearch™ product line now adds a positional scoring option to dtSearch's built-in relevancy ranking by hit term frequency, density and rarity. The new positional scoring ranks documents more highly when hits are near the top of a file, or otherwise clustered in a file. The scoring option works in connection with all existing indexed, unindexed, fielded and full-text search features, including: fuzziness adjustable from 0 to 10 (to sift through typographical and spelling errors), synonym/concept/thesaurus, boolean (and/or/not), natural language, phrase, phonic, wildcard, proximity, stemming, numeric range, and user-defined variable term weighting.

Product Enhancements - - All Products

The new release adds positional scoring to dtSearch's built-in relevancy ranking for all search types.

dtSearch previously ranked retrieved documents by hit term frequency, density and rarity. The new positional scoring ranks documents more highly when hits are near the top of a file, or otherwise clustered in a file. (All searches also continue to support user-defined variable term weighting.)

Product Enhancements - - dtSearch Desktop, Network and Web

The built-in dtSearch Spider adds an option to crawl across multiple servers from a single starting URL. Previously, the dtSearch Spider could only follow links within a single web site. In the new version, the Spider can crawl multiple servers so a search can span all sites linked to a page. (In keeping with the broader reach of the dtSearch Spider, the new version also adds options to limit indexed data by file size, file number, time on web site, etc.)

Product Enhancements - - Other

New features in the dtSearch Engine release include Java API expansion, more memory-efficient storing of very large results sets, and new options for indexed number handling and filename/field indexing. dtSearch Publish adds options with respect to browser specification and folder listing format.
