Using the Verity didump utility
Using the didump utility, you can view key components of the word index per partition. The
word list is a list of all words indexed by the Verity engine. The zone list is a list of all zones and
the zone attribute list is a list of the zone attributes found by the Verity engine.
The didump executable, which starts the didump application, is located in the
cf_root\lib\_nti40\bin directory in Windows, and the cf_root/lib/platform/bin directory on UNIX.
In these pathnames, cf_root refers to the ColdFusion MX root directory. In Windows, this is
typically C:\CFusionMX; on UNIX, this is typically /opt/coldfusionmx. On UNIX, platform
refers to the UNIX version of the server that runs ColdFusion: _solaris, _hpux11, or _ilnx21.
For example:
c:\cfusionmx\lib\platform\bin\didump /common = c:\cfusionmx\verity\common
-pattern llama
c:\new\parts\00000001.did
Viewing the word list with the didump utility
You can view the contents of the word list for a partition by using the didump utility with the
flag. The command-line syntax must include the
-words
partition file, like the following:
didump -words /z/collbldg/html/parts/00000003.did
An alphabetical listing of the words in the word index displays, as follows:

The columns in the display indicate the following:
•

The number of bytes used by the Verity engine to store information about the word
•
Doc
The number of unique documents in which the word appears
•
Word
The total number of occurrences of a word for the partition
To view the occurrences of a specific word or pattern, enter a command using the
option, as in the following example:
didump -pattern acronym 00000003.did
In this example, the didump utility displays information about the number of occurrences of the
word acronym. You can display the individual occurrences of a word using the
