Question

In my DB4O database I have an amount of Book objects

Book
  +string: Title
  ...

When entering a title (string) in my form I would like to suggest existing titles. Currently I use a simple

book.Title.Contains(titlePart)

But it would be a nice adition if I could suggest books with titles that match the input title even if it had several, non sequential matching words and give the matches in an order of relevance. In short: have full text search on them.

Any ideas?

Was it helpful?

Solution

You have to hook Lucene or Lucene.NET to index your text fields. Full text searches will be very fast using Lucene.
