Recoll versions 1.23.0-9c5e32-20161216 and 1.23.0-2bfd80-20161115 had been
|
||||
switched to using Xapian 1.4 which has a new and different index
|
||||
format. Due to issues in Xapian 1.4, I have switched back to using Xapian
|

1.2 as of Recoll 1.23.0-20170107-78b8ad.

This simply means that, if your index was created by one of the above

versions, it will have to be recreated from scratch after installing the

<h1>Release notes for Recoll 1.23.x</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Caveats</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p><em>Installing over an older version</em>: 1.19-21 </p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Some of the input handlers were converted from shell scripts
|
||||
to Python programs, and some helper dependancies changed. For
|
||||
example, you will need to install python-libxml2 and
|
||||
python-libxslt1 in most cases (for replacing xsltproc).</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>1.20-23 indexes are fully compatible. Installing 1.23
|
||||
over an 1.19 index is possible, but there have been small
|
||||
changes in the way compound words (e.g. email addresses) are
|
||||
indexed, so it will be best to reset the index. Still, in a
|
||||
pinch, 1.23 search can mostly use an 1.19 index. </p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Always reset the index if you do not know by which version it
|
||||
was created (e.g.: you're not sure it's at least 1.18). The
|
||||
best method is to quit all Recoll programs and delete the
|
||||
index directory (<span class="literal">
|
||||
rm -rf ~/.recoll/xapiandb</span>), then start <code>recoll</code>
|
||||
or <code>recollindex</code>. <br>
|
||||
|
||||
<span class="literal">recollindex -z</span> will do the same
|
||||
in most, but not all, cases. It's better to use
|
||||
the <tt>rm</tt> method, which will also ensure that no debris
|
||||
from older releases remain (e.g.: old stemming files which are
|
||||
not used any more).</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Case/diacritics sensitivity is off by default. It can be
|
||||
turned on <em>only</em> by editing
|
||||
recoll.conf (
|
||||
<a href="usermanual/usermanual.html#RCL.INDEXING.CONFIG.SENS">
|
||||
see the manual</a>). If you do so, you must then reset the
|
||||
index.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Changes in Recoll 1.23.0</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Recoll 1.23 has few user-visible changes. The relase was
|
||||
created mostly because some of the minor feature changes are
|
||||
critical from some niche Recoll uses (e.g.: the improved audio
|
||||
file properties indexing), and because the changes to the
|
||||
logging system were too extensive for a minor version.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>Internal only: the code now uses some C++11 features
|
||||
(e.g. std::threads, std::mutex) to replace home-grown
|
||||
hacks. In consequence, a C++11 compiler is now required for
|
||||
building.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>Configuration: some list configuration variables,
|
||||
namely <tt>skippedNames</tt>, <tt>noContentSuffixes</tt>,
|
||||
and <tt>xallexcepts</tt>, have acquired variants suffixed
|
||||
with <tt>+</tt> or <tt>-</tt> for adding or removing
|
||||
values from the default value, which is a longish list,
|
||||
which hence does not need to be copied for modification any
|
||||
more.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>New <tt>nomd5types</tt> variable for listing types of
|
||||
files for which we should not compute an MD5 hash (used for
|
||||
duplicates detection). See the manual for details. The
|
||||
default list excludes the audio file types.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>Unicode BOM detection for text files</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>Allow using full CSS style for term highlighting, not just
|
||||
color.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><em>execm</em> input handlers now have an alternate method
|
||||
to set metadata fields, easier than HTML meta fields.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Minor releases</h2>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||

||||
Xapian result count, which is often underestimated.</li>

|
||||
using, e.g. filename:doc$ instead of ext:doc.</li>

<li>Added suffix associations for .java and .sql, to fix
|

||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
