Our system consists of Documentum and an external database. I need to create an IndexAgent that will cull metadata from the external database and send it to xPlore for indexing. A search from our custom frontend should return results for both the content in Documentum and the metadata in the database. I'm not sure how best to proceed:
- Is there reference code for building a custom index agent? If so, can someone point me to it. I see that there is API documentation and an extensible DTD, but no reference index agent code.
- If I register the the external database tables, will the xPlore Index Agent "automagically" index it?
- The Dev/Admin guide suggests building a TBO to "inject" external metadata into the object for indexing, but I don't want to burden the Documentum object with all that external metadata, I'd rather the index agent find it itself.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
