Associating indexes with unindexable word lists (stop word lists)

Stop word lists are reference lists that contain words that you want ignored during the indexing process.

To associate a word index with a stop word list:

  1. In the Index Definition document, under the <wordindex> element, add a <wordindexproperties> element to hold the properties of the index.
  2. Under <wordindexproperties> add an <unindexablewords> element, which represents one reference list. Specify the name of the reference list as value to the NAME attribute. 
    <index NAME="My Word Index"> 
   <wordindex> 
      <wordindexproperties> 
         <unindexablewords NAME = "Irrelevant Words"/> 
      </wordindexproperties> 
      <elements> 
       (…) 
      </elements> 
   </wordindex> 
</index>
