We have a client that could benefit from the search engine functionality, but they want to be able to modify which fields are indexed at run time; is there any way to configure this dynamically? They want a database table where they can enter the entity and fields to search. |

By "modify which fields are indexed at runtime", do you mean you want to actually trigger a re-index (e.g. rebuild a Lucene index) or just allow the user to dynamically determine what fields are being searched on? Im assuming you mean the latter in which case you would generally be leveraging the operator syntax in the underlying search engine (e.g. Lucene) to cover building up the search query dynamically. Can you elaborate on an example scenario you are trying to cover and which search engine are you using?
