Note

Indexing Service is no longer supported as of Windows XP and is unavailable for use as of Windows 8. Instead, use Windows Search for client side search and Microsoft Search Server Express for server side search.

 

This section describes some individual sample filters in the Platform SDK. The following samples are listed in order of increasing complexity.

  • SmpFilt Sample. An example implementation of the IFilter interface for unformatted, single-byte-character text files.
  • IFilter Sample. An example implementation of the IFilter interface that filters both text-type and value-type properties for HTML files.
  • HtmlProp Sample. An example implementation of the IFilter interface that specializes the HTML filter (HtmlFilt) implementation of Indexing Service to extract and convert HTML <META> tags to value-type properties.
