Developing and Deploying the Oracle Secure Enterprise Search Database Crawler Plug-in
Previous previous|next Next Page

In this module, you will learn how to leverage the Oracle Secure Enterprise Search Database crawler plug-in.

The default table crawler crawls only Oracle databases, and it can crawl only one table per data source. By implementing a plug-in, the user can crawl data in any database supporting JDBC, and it can crawl multiple tables and views.

Timothy first studies the sample Database crawler plug-in that ships with Oracle SES to get a sense of the design and the functionality of the plug-in.Timothy implements the necessary Oracle SES Java plug-in API interfaces to build the plug-in Java classes. He packages the plug-in Java classes into a jar file. Timothy finally registers the plug-in and tests it.
