Sphinx 2.0.7 發布，全文搜索引擎

Sphinx 2.0.7 發布了，Sphinx是一個基於SQL的全文檢索引擎，可以結合MySQL,PostgreSQL做全文搜索，它可以提供比數據庫本身更專業的搜索功能，使得應用程序更容易實現專業化的全文檢索。Sphinx特別為一些腳本語言設計搜索API接口，如PHP,Python,Perl,Ruby等，同時為MySQL也設計了一個存儲引擎插件。

該版本主要是處理如下幾方面的問題：

Issue #1382:

A diligent and devoted Sphinx user informed us that trying the search “@name }” returned syntax error in results. After some conversation it was determined that this was not necessarily a bug, but had more to do with the way that Sphinx handles characters that are not in charset_table. After some internal discussion, this issue was resolved with the hope that Sphinx will become even more user friendly.

Issue #481:

This was a popular issue among Sphinx users. It had to do with index rotate failing with preopen_indexes = 1 option (windows). People were reporting messages such as:

WARNING: rotating index ‘MainIndex’: rename ‘C:\Search\data\dvsMainIndex.spd’ to ‘C:\Search\data\dvsMainIndex.old.spd’ failed: Permission denied
WARNING: rotating index ‘MainIndex’: rename to .old failed; using old index

In 2.0.7 this will not be an issue.

Issue #1370:

They were getting along just fine… and then came MS SQL SERVER 2012. But, we are now proud to announce that in 2.0.7, Sphinx and MS SQL Server have been happily reunited once again.

Issue #1041:

Here’s an important one for all you FreeBSD users out there. Many of you were having difficulty using workers=prefork. In 2.0.7, a very important issue has been resolved (although there are still some others being tackled).
