USING ROBOHELP SERVER 8 10 Getting started • Wildcard search for server-side indexing Enhanced indexing support for Search In RoboHelp Server 8, for all the WebHelp Pro and FlashHelp Pro projects, you can search for any topics and baggage files (PPT, DOC, XLS, TXT, and PDF) included in a project. You can also add a reference to these files in a topic, and the baggage files are displayed in the search results. For server-side indexing, you can copy the required baggage files to the project folder. The RoboHelp server reads these files and re-creates the index at the time of scheduled scanning. Also, if you do not include these baggage files in the project, the server still indexes them, provided they exist in the project folder. Search on the server is faster than on the client. Because the search engine is more advanced, it is better for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages. IIS and Apache support RoboHelp Server 8 runs in a servlet container, Tomcat. You can configure Tomcat to run with Apache or IIS as the Web server. Support for SQL Server 2005 Express Edition RoboHelp Server 8 can store server statistics and generates reports from SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. Support for REST Web services REST stands for Representational State Transfer. RoboHelp Server REST services are available at http:////rest/?. If you use the REST Web services in your code, you can perform a search on the content and return results for the context-sensitive Help. The REST services return results in XML format. For more information on REST Web services, see "REST web services" on page 19.

Enhanced indexing support for Search
In RoboHelp Server 8, for all the WebHelp Pro and FlashHelp Pro projects, you can search for any topics and baggage
files (PPT, DOC, XLS, TXT, and PDF) included in a project. You can also add a reference to these files in a topic, and
the baggage files are displayed in the search results.
For server-side indexing, you can copy the required baggage files to the project folder. The RoboHelp server reads these
files and re-creates the index at the time of scheduled scanning. Also, if you do not include these baggage files in the
project, the server still indexes them, provided they exist in the project folder.
Search on the server is faster than on the client. Because the search engine is more advanced, it is better for Chinese,
Japanese, and Korean languages.
