Is there any direct equivalent of the FULLTEXT index provided by mySQL ?

If not, has anyone implemented similiar functionality with PostgreSQL ?

See /contrib/fulltextindex. We do have it.

Re: Equivalent of FULLTEXT in mySQL

look at contrib/tsearch, contrib/fulltextindex and openfts.sourceforge.net
http://fts.postgresql.org/db/mw/index.html is running early version of OpenFTS

Hi Glen,

In addition to this, Christopher Kings-Lynne wrote a guide for
implementing Full Text Indexing in PostgreSQL:

http://techdocs.postgresql.org/techdocs/fulltextindexing.php

Hope this is what you're looking for.

:-)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
