HTMLTarget

public abstract class Target

extends java.lang.Object

Represents a simple target document object.

The Target class provides the basic data and methods for implementing index targets. The only attributes it holds about the index target are the URI or URL and the document size.

Most search engine implementations will need more than this.

For a slightly more exciting variant, see the HTMLDocument class.
