Editing a LoadUpdate Configuration File |
|
The LoadUpdate Configuration File editor consists of four categories of parameters to be set in the LoadUpate configuration file.
Setup Page
The Setup page consists of three parameters:
Name |
Description |
Required. Must be the value "LoadUpdate" | |
Optional. Is the number of Resource IDs for which to allocate storage. The value used in the LoadUpdate configuration file must match the value used in the SocketSearch configuration file. Each allocated and unused Resource ID only uses on the order of ten bytes of memory. So, allocate enough for the job. The default value is 1000. | |
Optional. Is the maximum number of Load Structures to support. The default is 5. |
Communication Page
The Communication page consists of one parameter:
Name |
Description |
Optional. Is the number of seconds before communications time out on a read or write through a socket to DirList or ScanDoc. A zero indicates the socket never times out. The default is zero (0). |
Encoding Page
The Encoding tab consists of four parameters:
Name |
Description |
Optional. If set to ON, any period or decimal point encountered whithin a section of text being indexed is removed, and the characters on either side made adjacent to each other with no intervening space. If set to OFF, any period or decimal point encountered whithin a section of text being indexed is replaced by a blank. The default is OFF. | |
Optional. If set to ON, any apostrophe or single quote encountered whithin a section of text being indexed is removed, and the characters on either side made adjacent to each other with no intervening space. If set to OFF, any apostrophe or single quote encountered whithin a section of text being indexed is replaced by a blank. The default is zero OFF. | |
Optional. If set to ON, any hyphen or minus sign encountered whithin a section of text being indexed is removed, and the characters on either side made adjacent to each other with no intervening space. If set to OFF, the disposition of the hyphen or minus sign is dependent on the value of blankhyphen. If both skip hyphen and blankhyphen are OFF the hyphen or minus sign remains in the text. | |
Optional. If set to ON, any hyphen or minus sign encountered whithin a section of text being indexed is replanced by a blank. If set to OFF, the disposition of the hyphen or minus sign is dependent on the value of skiphyphen. If both skip hyphen and blankhyphen are OFF the hyphen or minus sign remains in the text. |
Processing Page
The Processing page consists of three parameters:
Name |
Description |
Optional. If set to ON, data source files pointed to by source identifier files are deleted after having been successfully loaded into the system. If set to OFF, removing the data source files is left to the user. The default is ON. | |
Optional. If set to ON, replaced and deleted records and indexes are actually purged from the Load Structure, with only the most recent and previous versions of the Load Structure remaining in tact. This allows for conservation of space while still providing for a backout of the most recent updates. If set to OFF, nothing is purged from the structure. This can require excessive disk space. The default is ON. | |
Optional. Is the amount of time, in seconds, between adding data, deleting data and/or updating data in the data store. The default is 0 secs. |
After the LoadUpdate configuration file has been edited, the next step would be to save the file.
