virtuexru Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I wanted someone to clarify what the extent is or some kind of workaround to search symbols.. Like I have 15 "C++ Jobs" 10 ".NET Jobs" 22 "Java Jobs" Now if you type into my search "Java" Everything comes out great, you get a ton of results. However typing in "C++" Gives you squash, I'm assuming because of the boolean in FullText searching. Is there anyway to workaround this?

fenway Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Not with the built-in indexing... not even a recompile will fix this, AFAIK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virtuexru Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 So what route should I take? Any plugins I could use, or do I need to completley go to another databse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenway Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 There are a number of 3rd-party full-text search options for MySQL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virtuexru Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 Great. Do you have a link to a list of these so I can check them out or any in particular? Googling didn't give me too many solid results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
