Search engine update

it works Great.
Thanks Erel

Is there some technical reason for not showing hits on embedded text?

For example, if someone wants to know the command to lowercase a string and they enter "lowercase", it will not show "ToLowercase".

Most search engines do not break words to all possible substrings. However the parser we are using here does break words based on upper case / lower case transitions.
For example you can search for Basic4android Search: Preference and get results with PreferenceActivity.

The method String.ToLowerCase is broken to the following tokens: tolowercase, to, lower and case. None of them match: lowercase. If you search for lower case you will see that it does return. With that said, if you search for lowercase you will still get a good result as the first result.

I wasn't considering that you have to index all the words. I was thinking of a search like the browser does on a page where it just does a string search on the entire block of text, thus finding any embedded instances. Oh well...
