Firstly, I'd like to apologize for posting to multiple lists, but I'm not sure where to ask this question. If you know of a better forum for this topic, please direct me there.

Now that Tiger is out of the bag (pun intended), I'm looking at any info about integration of Spotlight and SearchKit. Specifically, I'm looking at two questions:

1. I know Spotlight uses SearchKit for content-based indexing. Is there a way to access the SearchKit index created by Spotlight using SearchKit APIs? A quick hack of doing

SKIndexOpenWithURL((CFURLRef)[NSURL URLWithString:@"file://.Spotlight-V100/ContentIndex.db"], nil, (Boolean)0);

did not work...

2. Does anybody know whether the content index created by Spotlight is kSKIndexInverted, kSKIndexVector, or kSKIndexInvertedVector? I'd bet it's the first choice, but I'm hoping for the third one...

Thank you in advance for answering, and please cc your answer to my email.


YOu can't access the Spotlight SearchKit index, but the question is why do you want to?? just use the Spotlight API to do the query and limit the query to just a text content based query


kMDItemTextContent = "blah"cwd
