search return URL with line numbers ?

[Asoka De Silva]

Hi,

I am using lxr 0.9.5 and swish-e 2.4.5 for searching.  It works well for most part but for one detail; when I do a search, I get the correct results but they all point to the file and do not drill down to the line numbers.

For example,

http://lxr.atlas-canada.ca/lxr-14/search?filestring=&string=UserAnalysis

and the results are returned as:

http://lxr.atlas-canada.ca/lxr-14/source/offline/PhysicsAnalysis/AnalysisCommon/UserAnalysis/ChangeLog
...

instead of

http://lxr.atlas-canada.ca/lxr-14/source/offline/PhysicsAnalysis/AnalysisCommon/UserAnalysis/ChangeLog#004

Is there some setting that changes this so that the links reflect the appropriate line numbers ?

Thanks, in advance, for your help !

regards,
Asoka

Hi,

This is a "feature" of using swish-e.  Swish-e doesn't provide line numbers for the match, so LXR can't display/provide them.

The numbers before the result in a swish-e search is the relevance score, not the line number.

If you want/need line numbers then your best bet is to use glimpse.

Cheers,

Malcolm
