Search engine material - C# / C Sharp

David

Hi there,

I have been looking up various search engine material on the net. One that
looks promising is an article that Wrox published, which is no longer
available. I have the article, but cannot get the source code, as the
company that have taken over from wrox have decided to drop it in their
infinite wisdom.

So, does anyone have the source code for the articles?

1. A C# Web Spider written as a Wed Service
2. Building a special purpose search engine

Both are by Aldy Karma and ST Tan.

The articles appear good, but without the source, I fear they are
effectively useless.

Best regards,
Dave Colliver.

Not for those articles, but I'd urge you to look at Lucene.Net:

Lucene is a great indexer, which may well be able to form the heart of
whatever search engine you're trying to write.
