NAME¶

TM::Index::Characteristics - Topic Maps, Indexing support (match layer)

SYNOPSIS¶

    # somehow get a map (any subclass of TM will do)
    my $tm = ... 
    # one option: create a lazy index which learns as you go
    use TM::Index::Characteristics;
    my $idx = new TM::Index::Characteristics ($tm);
    
    # for most operations which involve match_forall to be called
    # for querying characteristics should be much faster

DESCRIPTION¶

This index can be attached to a map if querying it for characteristics (here names and occurrences) is intensive. The package inherits most of its functionality from TM::Index.
