IndexDef

The IndexDef operations allow you to create secondary indexes, set and retrieve the fields in the indexes, and specify the type of index that is used.

Secondary indexes provide additional search capabilities for browsers, and are useful in querying data that is stored in the persistent database that is created if you implement shared-all persistence.

For additional information on the use of keys and indexes in TIBCO ActiveSpaces data grids, see the “Key Fields” and “Indexes” sections in the TIBCO ActiveSpaces Developer’s Guide, “Performing Basic ActiveSpaces Tasks.”
