Search::Xapian is a Perl XS frontend to the Xapian C++ search library. It is a fairly complete wrapper: most features of the Xapian library are made available for use from Perl. Xapian is a highly adaptable toolkit that allows developers to easily add advanced indexing and search facilities to their own applications. It supports the Probabilistic Information Retrieval model as well as a rich set of boolean query operators. It's fast and scalable to hundreds of millions of documents. License: Perl License Changes: The new API methods in Xapian 1.0.3 are wrapped (Database::get_metadata() and WritableDatabase::set_metadata()). The POD documentation has been improved. Warnings when compiling on certain Linux distributions have been fixed. Building on Cygwin with Perl versions les than 5.9.5 now works.
