This is certainly an interesting development!
But it might need some further (broader) discussion before getting in. In the first place: Why do we really need it? Can you elaborate/illustrate? If we add conditions, what kind of conditions do we want? Syntax? Etc. A broader design may be easier to maintain.. How do comparable systems implement this? If we add this for Zebra, what about other search engines?
Marcel, The functionality definitely *is* needed -- see, for instance bug 14277, where the meaning of 521$a varies drastically based on the value of ind1. The 'condition=' syntax feels like overkill to me -- before work with the inicators, I assumed that the arguments to the <index_subfields> xml tag were essentially limits that were ANDed together... I guess they're not, but I think that we could pull a 'convention over configuration' fast one and pretend that they are: 'tag' and 'subfield' are required attributes, specifying the marc field and subfield, alll other attributes are limits -- if not present, all matching tags/subfields will be used. ...or we could go with the 'condition=' syntax, and make it explicit. I'm fine either way, as long as I can limit by indicator. :-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
