[opencms-dev] How to limit search to a document set

[David]

Hi Andras,
 Thanks very much for your prompt response.
 I already customised my search engine (in the opencms-search.xml) to point 
to only a specific search path in my application (e.g. /sites/myapp/) so 
that there is only one indexsource running. Here is the customisation 
snippet:
 <indexsource>
<name>myapp</name>
<indexer class="org.opencms.search.CmsVfsIndexer" />
<resources>
<resource>/sites/myapp/content/</resource>
</resources>

<documenttypes-indexed>
<name>xmlpage</name>
<name>xmlcontent</name>
<name>page</name>
<name>text</name>
<name>pdf</name>
<name>rtf</name>
<name>html</name>
<name>msword</name>
<name>msexcel</name>
<name>mspowerpoint</name>
<name>image</name>
<name>generic</name>
</documenttypes-indexed>
</indexsource>
 Here I am only indexing on files stored in /sites/myapp/content folder of 
myapp application. The indexing works fine and I can do searches on this 
entire index source. What I am trying to achieve next is to further limit 
the scope of my search to only a selected list of files (given the file 
names) in this folder. Would the method setSearchRoots() solve this? Does 
the parameter searchRoots of this method mean an array of file names?
 Can you elaborate a bit more from your suggestion? Thanks.
 Rgds,
David.
