I've searched high and low on Google, and can find tons of pages about how to kill off nepomuk.

But, I actually want to make it WORK. (I know, crazy, right?)

I have a mountain of code that I want to wade thru, and having something that would help me find all references to specific data names, or subroutines throughout the code base would be great.

So its running on the machine, it indexed a boatload of stuff, I selected the directory structures I wanted indexed, and let it do its thing. The Places portion of Dolphin shows me a list of types, one of which is Documents and all the source code modules show up in there.

But I STILL can't find file names or variable names (data elements) in this source code. At least it won't find any such thing in Dolphin's built in Search.

Is there a some other tool I need to use for this?

I use kfind to find text parts. It works great and is quite fast without any indexing... It just gives a list of files that contain what I searched for. Don't know if that's what you're looking for...

Kfind has no choice but to start thrashing through every file on your disk till it finds the text. Each search takes a long time because it takes a long time to dig through thousands of files. What I was looking for was something to make good on all of the grandiose promises nepomuck has made over the last several years, which included indexing the selected files on your drive by every word in every file, so that finding every file that mentioned the words "socket" and "AF_INET6" would be listed instantly, because they were already found in an index. Searching a drive full of software and taking 10 minutes to do so each time is not my definition of "quite fast" or "working great". -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
