Which work item attributes are included in full text search?
![]()
We are wondering which attributes are included in full text search. From the below, it seems that Large String type and Large HTML type are included, and we suspect that many other text type attributes are included.
Customization of Work Items in Rational Team Concert https://jazz.net/library/article/1003 Our understanding is that full text search looks at the JFS text index in the jfs-textindex folder, so thought we might have the answer by looking at the files in there, but we couldn't interpret that. We are under the impression that non-text type attributes, such as enumerations are not included in full text search.The articles we found talk about how full text search will split up the search terms using a tokenizer, but they don't seem to talk about which fields are included in the search.

We assume the search provided by these two is identical and searches on the same attributes. Please correct us if we are wrong. Note: We read this article, because we thought that part of the answer lay in understanding how the JFS text index is created in the first place. (If that doesn't contain certain fields from work items, then of course the full text search will not be searching on those fields.)
