Creating STYLE.LEX

[corey_mcm]

I need to be able to search on criteria containing periods, which Verity search doesn't seem to like. From what I've read I need to create the STYLE.LEX file so that I can search on criteria containing non-std characters (ie: periods), but I can't seem to find any resources on how this file should be created or structured.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, as I've been banging my head against the wall on this one for quite a while.

Thanks.

FINALLY.. found the solution to this problem. Hidden in an old legacy CF5 document. I'll post it here incase anyone else finds it useful.

The style.lex file to allow searching on criteria containing periods:
$control: 1
$charmap: 8859
lex:
{
define: WHT "[ \t]" #whitespace macro
define: NL "{WHT}*\n" #newline macro
define: ALPANUM "[A-Za-z0-9]" #alpha numeric
characters
define: SPECIAL "[/&\\-]" #the special
chars (punct)
define: BEGINCHARS "[A-Za-z0-9']" # Valid chars
for the start of word
define: MIDCHARS "[A-Za-z0-9&]" # Valid
chars for the middle of word
define: ENDCHARS "[A-Za-z0-9']" # Valid chars
for the end of word
token: WORD "{BEGINCHARS}+{MIDCHARS}+{ENDCHARS}+"
#token: WORD "[{ALPHANUM}+{SPECIAL}]+" #word (extended)token: WORD "[A-Za-z0-9\\-\\.]+" #word (alternate)
token: WORD "[0-9]+\\.[0-9]+" #word
token: EOS "[.?!]" #end of sentence
token: NEWLINE "{NL}" #single end-of-line
token: PARA "^([ \t]*\n)+" #end of paragraph
token: WHITE "{WHT}" #whitespace
token: PUNCT "." #all other text
}
$$


This file will be placed inl
For Unix:

/opt/cfusion/verity/common/style/custom and /opt/cfusion/verity/common/style/file

For Windows:

C:\CFusion\Verity\Common\style\file and C:\CFusion\Verity\Common\style\custom

I still don't seem to be returning all results...

I'm searching for instances of variable names within coldfusion source code - should the "internet" search type (and all characters in lower case) perform a full-text search looking for substrings of the criteria (not case-sensitive)??
