[Zope] custom searching by field

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

Zope's ZCatalog uses indexes with the names of the attributes or accessor
methods that get your field values.  If you have an index called 'manager'
that is a FieldIndex, you can search that for an exact value, and nothing
else will get searched.  This, of course, assumes you write templates and
scripts to query the catalog for the right index.

Subject: [Zope] custom searching by field


I have a document that I need to search for a specific field/value pairing. 
For example I want to find a record by

manager: Carla Haskins

but I don't want to return the other record with the same value in it.

Comment: Carla Haskins helped me solve my problem.
