Using Oracle Text with Apex

partlycloudyMay 23 2007 — edited Mar 14 2008
Can someone point me to some resources on how to integrate Oracle Text and APEX to do searches, highlight results, etc (all the features of Oracle Text)?

The data to be indexed is in files on the filesystem, so I would like to keep it that way and use the FILE_DATASTORE option for Text.

Thanks for any pointers.

Update: Yes, I did see http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/pdf/apex_text_application_v1.6.pdf
but the search results there just returns the URL/file containing the "hit". It doesn't show the actual text fragment that caused the match, doesn't highlight it, etc. I am looking for a real Google-like search. Hm, having said that, I might as well use Google Desktop! Nah, where's the fun in that?
